While I was watering the tomato plant on our balcony/patio garden the other day, I took a closer look underneath some of the leaves and was excited to see little green tomatoes growing... at least 8 of them... woohoo! What you see on screen is pretty close to their actual size too... so they are still pretty teeny. Mmm... now all I can think of is fresh salads, roasted tomatoes, and salsa... I will have to choose the recipe wisely though, since I don't know if there are enough of the little guys to make all three!

They look very promising! :)
Isn't it such a gorgeous green? I love the excitement of growing food. I always get a little squeal of delight whenever I see new fruit and veggies. YUM! xo
oooooh they look delicious
Yummy! My vote would be to make them into salsa. There is nothing better than fresh salsa made with homegrown tomatoes.
They're coming along quite well, look very healthy. Mine are still struggling, can't seem to knock out that early blight fungus, and it's been raining again. Great for the fungus, but not so good for my poor, pathetic tomato plants.

Hi Valerie..
That must have been a grea surprise. Great photo too. :)
That is such a cool picture! Like frame-worthy!
ooooh! My tomatoes are forming too. i just hope they ripen quickly before blight strikes here in damp and gloomy England!
Home made salsa from grown tomatoes? I'll bring the chips.
Those guys look yummy!
i love home grown veggies. i hope these get nice and perfect and ripe soon!
Don't you just love fresh garden tomatoes? I always liked the tangy way tomato plants smell. :D
Yay!!! I saw your title and I went out and checked my tomato plants and Yay!!! little tomatoes are growing there!
YUM. Homegrown tomatoes are absolutely the best! Enjoy.
Those are some beautiful little tomatoes, I'm way jealous. :)
good job!

: )
me too! I'm hoping they will make some more as the one I wanted has sold out :(
Hope you are having a great weekend also.

i have a pretty tasty salsa recipe, if you're looking for one!
How exciting! There's nothing like growing your own food....one day I'll live in a house with a big yard and a lovely man to help me tend it...!
My mom has the topsy turvys and she's starting to get some green tomatoes right now too.
Birds ate all ours off the plant ):
great tomatoes! mine are finally coming in, too! I'm so excited :D
I am so excited about tomatoes! I only eat them when they are fresh :)

I am trying to attempt to grow tomatoes too. I haven't actually started but it is something that I have been wanting to do. Your tomato looks really good :-)
Gorgeous.
