Tomatoes

We shall see what we shall see. We bought some tomato plants, and if everything goes right, we should be supplying us and our neighbors with tomatoes by sometime in June.  

In the first picture is one of those upside down tomato planters. It was only $1.50 at Big Lots. It had everything except the dirt and the tomato plant. I had a four foot treated 2x4 that I split and made the support. I put two plants in this planter.

These two plants are the same variety as those in the upside down planter. As they grow, I am going I will pinch off the lower branches and fill the pot with more soil. The newly buried stem will produce more roots.

One of the plants below (right) is a yellow tomato. I think the other is a cherry tomato. I really can't remember. We shall see.

Our Snake is Back

 We had a black snake show up on our carport last year about this time of the year. Today, as I was going to the shed, there he was in the tree. Enjoy the pictures. Click on the picture to make larger.

Pizza

We were eating at the Pizza Hut last night, and the woman in the next booth ordered a vegetarian pizza with ham.

Two New Razors

This is the Ever-Ready 1924 "Shovelhead." It is a single edge razor that hinges on the front. This one is in really nice shape, and I am looking forward to trying it out. I am happy to add it to my collection.

This is a Gillette travel tech, B1. So it was manufactured in 1956. These have little short handles, but they are great shavers. I have one from 1962 that is in a leather case already, but this one was sold with the ER 1924, so, I gladly took it. I may gift it some time later.
