I have been growing tomatoes in large pots and have had outstanding results. The only years the results have been less than great have been when we've either had too much rain and not enough sun or vice versa.

This year I planted ten tomato plants: cherry, grape, and park's whoppers and they are full of tomatoes. I'm taking some of the grape tomatoes to some co workers I have so many. The park's whoppers are the biggest and most plentiful I have had yet.

I found a packages of Toufayan smart pockets (pita pockets) on sale and have been having pita pockets every day filled with green leaf lettuce, my tomatoes, cucumbers, and hummus that I make with a dressing sprinkled on it every day. Delicious!

I indulge having bread in the summer but don't eat it during cooler months as it's too fattening. And since I'm a vegan mostly, it should be okay. Absolutely no meat ever--not in forty years--very little dairy(some milk in store bought smoothies), no cheese or eggs.

How is your garden doing this year?
