The first of our tomatoes was ripe to pick so we did after I had to stake all of the tomato plants because they outgrew our the original stakes and cages. The little green heirloom fell off so we shall see if it will ripen in the house!
As a side note, I am sure some of you more seasoned veterans will simply laugh at this, but never ask your husband or significant other to do a chore/task they have absolutely no vested interest in whatsoever. I have asked my loving husband to do this for weeks now and decided today it had to be done. I don't really have one of those "Happy Wife, Happy Life" husbands...hence why "we" still don't have our vasectomy and Luke is 20 months old on the 4th of July....so I have decided that unless he has some personal stake in the task, wifey is going to be doing it.
As I am outside in the 100 degree heat with my very helpful and non-whining children, I realize that my husband, who thinks that tomatoes are gross and in some sort of "unfinished larvae state" has no interest in whether they live or die! Lesson learned.
