The Tomato Project – and #Tuesday Tunes

I recently discovered that gardening might be the thing one of the things I am missing from my life.

As spring nicks in, seeing nature hastily wake, trees and bushes in buds, I feel

THE OPPORTUNITY.

The opportunity of changing, starting over things, new possibilities opening up for me.

 

If only it lasted longer! Good things tend to rush away too fast nowadays. When I was  young kid, a day consisted of 30 hours at least, but as I get older (and with the kiddos on-board), I am pretty sure that someone is STEALING HOURS FROM ME!!!

Now I have only 18-20 hours a day. I have been trying to compensate those missing hours lately with shortening my sleeping hours, but it does not seem to be working very well. I am tired AND still missing my hours.

People say that “The older you get, the faster time flies“. I don’t want to end up only having 10 hours a day when I am old pridefully aged…

Back to topic:

I got some beautiful sweet and juicy tomatoes this weekend from a friend of mine…and ops, an idea presented itself.

I AM GOING TO GROW MY OWN TOMATOES

But I had no idea how to pipe up…

So I asked my mother-in-law searched the omniscient Internet…and found out that I can use the seeds from these juicy tomatoes for bedding plants that I later can prick out to my garden for a lot of sunshine.

Yay, baby, in a couple of weeks, if I don’t forget to water them, I am going to have plants like this!

This is what I am hoping for: my kids, stuffing their mouths with self-grown tomatoes this summer.

You never know, if this project goes well, I might extend and add some more vegetables to my gardening project…which in some strange way, makes me remember this good old song from James, enjoy! Happy Tuesday Tunes!
