The Late Night Harvest of the Great Tomato

I was lying in bed last night with stories running through my head of my Aunt Pat's tomato thieves. I leaned over to my fiance and decided I must go out and harvest my 1 lb. tomato before an animal got to it first. We had just settled into bed around 10pm but I knew I must grab the flashlight and pruners and save my prized tomato.

I've never grown a tomato this big and I'm proud that I started the plant from seed.  It's a heirloom Hungarian Heart - you can see the heart shape in the picture below. We are planning to make BLT's with it tomorrow night.

There's nothing better than fresh delicious tomatoes from the garden.
