For you Norcal natives, how are your beefsteak tomatoes doing? I have lots of big yellow brandywines on the vines, but only a half a dozen on 5 plants have ripened. It's getting cold outside. I'm worrying that they won't ripen, especially the ones in my new garden.

What kind of camera are you using? those are fantastic resolutions.

[Funwithfood]

Just a Canon PowerShot A70.

Pretty! but ugh - that bug! tee hee. Do you consider it a parasite against your tomatoes?

[Funwithfood]

All parasites are "taken out".

I had a LOT of these this year:

Do you have a little bug AK-47, or do you just pinch and stomp? :-)

And even when you're taking pictures of crawly and hoppy bugs, they're DAMN fine pictures!

[Funwithfood]

I have my ways...

That grasshopper photo is a fav--he's really keeping an eye on me!

Hey cool! It's a Pushmi-Pullyu bug! :-)

I had the fewest tomato worms this year I've ever had. I seem to remember last year, after having searched for the little bastard 10 minutes before finding him, grinding him into the dirt while screaming "die, MFer, and let this be a warning to your friends". Apparently it worked.

[LindaWhit]

Yeah, I'd say that even in that teeny-tiny little tomato worm brain of theirs, they figured out danna's tomatoes were best to be avoided this year. :-)

[Funwithfood]

I'll have to try that with grasshoppers next year--had a zillion!

ROFL! You very artfully placed the two halves "just so" in the dirt. Very Terminator-like. Nice job! ;-)

[SarahEats]

As always, stunning. :)

Your tomatoes are far prettier than mine, but this has been my (albeit blurry) desktop image since the day this salad was consumed:

It isn't that mine are prettier--it's all about lighting--mine look *terrible* in poor lighting.
(Think... "Candlelight Dinner"... we all look better by candlelight :)
