I am so happy I bought that Topsy Turvey thing that has been advertising on TV, I can finally grow something! Even my weeds don't flower...LOL

This is the Topsey Turvey that I bought, I am also growing Sweet Basil, Thai Basil and Dill below it. Its amazing to me...

Hmm, might have to try some! It is super windy out here in the middle of nowhere and we have a hard time getting our tomatoes started because the wind always knocks the little guys down. Wonder if we could put the topsy turvey's in a more protected area and get them going that way. I think they look fun on tv. I'm anxious to see some "real" ones in action!

Nice shot, love the color. I can't wait for those super sloppy tomato sandwiches that you have to eat over the sink, lest you get tomato juice all down the front of your shirt. Thanks reminding me of one of the best simple joys of summer.
