Tomato Woes

Vine Ripened...

So many and no one is eating... Everyone is picking even the ones that aren't ripened fully yet but no one is eating them in a steady enough stream to keep up with harvest. The grocery store charges extra for Vine Ripened Tomatoes and for some reason we're ripening 50% of our crop in a brown bag with a banana. That actually works, which is amazing because fruit that was only slightly red turned bright red, but vine ripened is better, charged for... 

Brown bag 1/3 full of just cherry sized tomatoes. 

Today's harvest, only mine, another 12-15 were picked. 

Small cantaloupe that fell from the container. I cut it open and ate it after smelling its sweet strong aroma. It was sweet and soft and delicious. I couldn't believe I had a ripe edible mini melon. It's pretty cool!
