Call Me Garden Sally

Tommy and I are excited for our summer project of growing tomatoes.Tommy isn't willing to eat the tomatoes, but he can't wait to use the watering pitcher to care for them. We're hoping the tomatoes grow as big and as delicious as Great Grandpa's.My mother claims her Dad would occasionally go on a summer diet, eating only tomatoes for several weeks. Yum. Homegrown tomatoes with a touch of salt and balsamic? I could live off that for a good, long while.

Proof

I did it! I did it! I kept something alive other than my children. I bought this then-flowering plant at Bachman's about two months ago to put myself in the mood for spring. The flowers died, and I was sure I'd destined another plant to the same fate. I kept watering it, though, and just today, I noticed my plant is sprouting new leaves! Maybe my green thumb has finally kicked in. Does anyone know of houseplants that are easy to grow?
