Watching the plants grow

Okay so this may sound weird but Adam and I discovered that we like watching the plants grow. There is something satisfying in know that all the hard work is paying off when you see the plant get bigger and stronger and then you get yummy rewards.
We aren't plant killers after all! OUR TOMATO PLANT IS ALIVE!! We have been watering our tomato plant for a while, half hoping it would bounce back and some what thinking we had false hope for it. BUT THEN i spotted 2 little flowers on it along with new green branches. WOO HOO!!! Now it has 4 flowers on it and we are hoping to get some tomatoes before it gets cold.
our other plants are doing fantastic. We have had 3 strawberries grow so far but only got to eat one because we think the other two got eaten by birds or children. haha. But man was that strawberry was good. it was super sweet and perfect color. OH we also have a GIANT banana pepper growing outside our front door and a baby pepper following shortly behind it. we are going to try cooking with them soon but i hope we don't burn our mouths off. but yeah that is the exciting tale of our tomato.
