first tomato + BLT

I was able to start my weekend with a fun little victory today.  Upon arriving home and going out to the backyard to water my garden, I found a surprise.  My first ripe tomato had arrived!  Like a proud mother picking up her kindergartener after their first day, I lovingly took it from the stem and lavished it with photography before slicing it up for a scrumptious BLT.  Juicy, firm and sweet, it makes me drool for the future where I’ll have them available on a regular basis.  If only the sun could hurry up and make it happen faster somehow.
