You know, I could not agree more. That's my intention, but what I'm
seeing ... I can only eat so many tomato sandwiches, etc. And I just
know they're going to all come in at once, so I was thinking some will
have to be cooked in some way.

I didn't plant them to cook. This is my first year planting Brandywines,
so I wasn't expecting such huge and plentyful tomatoes. I am not
complaining.

I'm getting a new neighbor at the end of the week, maybe I'll lay a
couple off on her. (laugh)
