The Amortized Tomatoes
We are the proud recipients of two ripe tomatoes. We haven't eaten them yet but I am sure they will taste awesome since if we amortize them out, they probably cost about $30 a piece. Of course, we have more getting ready to eat (if we beat the birds to them). So hopefully by the end of the tomato crop they should level out at maybe a dollar each. It is sort of like playing the stock market. You put money in and get something back. Come to think of it, we didn't do well in the stock market either, if we put two dollars in, we got one back. Oh well, everything can't be measured in the profit margin sometimes it comes down the the sheer pleasure (such as biting into a vine ripened tomato) of accomplishment or in our case participation.

Well..Mrs Beans tells me to be sure and remind you the bird netting and the planting barrels can be used again next year. That might "cheapen" your tomatoes a bit, so enjoy those expensive ones while they last. Love your blogs. Sounds like a good life...as long as ya stay away from Wall Street.
