Brief garden updates

As I promised, grilled cheese tomato sandwiches with tomatoes from the garden, featuring Nebraska Wedding (an orange tomato) and Green Striped Zebra:



I've spoken about the Green Zebra striped flavor and now I have to give an opinion on the Nebraska Wedding. Meaty, balance of acid and sweet, not mind blowing, but still, better than your average tomater that you can buy at the store.

I still have yet a potential 2-3 other mystery varieties to try from my growing vines, one of which I am sure if Brandywine, so with luck I'll have something to really rave about this summer.

Either way, here's a pic of a nifty squash tendril I found in my garden:

If you eat your Nebraska Wedding tomatoes the Nebraska way... or the way that we did when we visited our grandparents in Nebraska.. make a sandwich with bread (toasted or not) and the only fillings being mayo and tomato. I always enjoyed it in the middle of the summer...might be an acquired taste though
