It’s spring again and that means another year of trying to score an heirloom sungold tomato plant from Craig and Susan LeHoullier. We got started too late last Saturday and by the time we arrived at 11am, they were sold out. Since I didn’t feel like driving out to their house in North Raleigh during the week, I was determined to arrive early enough this morning.
Now, I get up every morning around 7am to take the dog out and give her breakfast. Then she crawls back into bed with me and snoozes for a few hours while I work on my laptop. This morning, however, we left right after breakfast.
This is how she looked on the way to Raleigh…
I think pup was missing her morning nap.
We pulled in at 8am sharp and I am happy to report that I am now the proud owner of a tiny sungold tomato plant. It joins the Tiger Tom heirloom variety that we purchased last week.
They may be little now, but look what happened last year. :)
(Did I really say that I would only buy one tomato plant this year? Whoops!)
In other garden-related news, we will not have to buy any herbs this year, as illustrated by this photo that Eric took this morning.
