Tomatoes...

 

A couple of months ago we planted 2 tomato plants in the existing vegetable patch in our backyard. One of them hasn't done very well but the other one has taken off and is loaded with fruit. Our neighbour across the road gave us 2 more as well so we are hoping that before the end of Summer we will have a good crop before Autumn comes.

good for you! I would love to grow some vegetables but my small, dark balcony just doesn't seem to be good place for that.

Lucky you that you have a plant full of tomatoes. I hope we get a decent crop this year

Good luck with healthy toms - we are constantly plagued and disappointed by tomato blight. Here is can take down a healthy abundant crop in a week.

That one is quite productive.

Fresh tomatoes are the very best. Enjoy them while you have them.

Homegrown produce has more nutritional benefits than store bought products.

There is nothing like home grown tomatoes!!
They look amazing! Fresh from the vine tomatoes, especially if they are homegrown, are a wonderful part of summer. We're get farmer's market fresh ones even in the winter here in Florida. They wouldn't grow in summer here because it is too hot, but by then we're back home in Oregon and it's tomato season again!!! We count our blessings!

Grace Brothers

  We have 2 new chickens, both black ladies. If any of you are familiar with British comedy tv shows you will recognize the names we have given them. This one is named Miss Brahms. And this one is named Mrs Slocombe. At the moment we have them in a temporary shelter next to the Special Patrol Group that we've had for the last 9 months just so they can get to know each other before we intigrate the black ones in with the brown ones. These ones give us a white coloured egg whereas the brown shavers give us brown coloured eggs. Linking up with  Tuesday Treasures ,  Happy Tuesdays  and   Wordless Wednesday .

Auckland Metropolis Museum

In amongt the modern new highrise buildings in Auckland City is this smaller vintage building that is currently for sale (I'd buy it if I had the money).   My research found that:  "It was designed by English-born architect Charles Towle and erected in the early 1930s as the Church of Christ, Scientist, the building's Graeco-Roman facade has towering columns that frame its impressive entranceway, with three ornate timber doors decorated with leadlight inserts providing access to the expansive foyer. Arched ceilings dominate the former congregational high stud space beyond the foyer and numerous picturesque windows provide a light, airy feel and an ambience many office buildings lack. The building housed congregational and Sunday school services for 70 years until it was sold and converted into office space in 2003. A significant refurbishment was also carried out with care taken to ensure that the building's distinctive character remained intact. Special architectural ...
