A few months ago I planted new cherry tomato plants in my Aerogarden device in my small New York apartment.  It has started to produce at a terrific rate and so we are enjoying a bumper crop of them.  They are delicious.  My last plant lasted more than a year but struggled at the end.  Having this reminder of the bountiful goodness means I will be less sympathetic to the old plants and plant younger ones sooner.  Wait a minute, this could be interpreted as metaphor for my own aging.  Let me think about this a bit.  But I’ll enjoy lots of the succulent mini-orbs in the meantime!

By the way, the Basil plants are also strong so lots of pesto!  Yum!
