100DaysOfHappiness: Tomato Plants

I have decided to try my own version of 100 Happy Days, meaning I will be posting happy day photos when the mood strikes - until I hit 100.  It may be 100 days straight, it may not.  I can't be tied down to these types of constraints, especially since I'll be "off the grid" again this summer in July when I go back to camp.

So, first up is a photo of my tomato plants!

For anyone who knows me, they know that I do not really have a green thumb.  Plants have been known to die once they arrive at my home.  However, I thought I'd try again.  My son's school had a plant fundraiser last month and I figured even if they didn't make it, I still contributed money to his school. 

So, I left the school plant sale with three tomato plants, two strawberry plants, one kale, and a couple different types of bell peppers.  The strawberry plants have not been faring as well, probably also due to the high temps we had last week.  The bell peppers and especially the tomatoes are faring the best.  

Checking on them each morning and seeing the little green tomatoes growing and the kale leaves increasing in size makes me happy!!!
