Should I Take The Tomatoes ?

[K9karen]

I hardly doubt that caring for the garden by picking the ripe ones so the not so ripe ones CAN ripen qualifies for a WANTED poster in the Post Office. Go for it, girl!!! Enjoy every last, tantalizing bite!! I LOVE native tomatoes.

Guess what my favorite sandwich is??? Native tomato and vadalia onion sandwich with lettuce, mayo, salt and pepper. Good thing I sleep alone!

YUM YUM! I'm with ya on that sandwich, Donna!!!!

Sale sign? Empty house? Oh Liz, grab that wicker basket and head on over and grab those suckers before they go to waste! I can make a meal out of home grown tomatoes!

Liz, it has been a while since I read a thread that had me smiling like this one. Oh the mental image I have of you slinking away after the little shih tzus started barking! I'd say you are about 1/3 of the way to a good BLT! Of course stealing a pig for the bacon just might get your picture in the post office!

Reuters-August 25

A woman faces felony charges in what officials are described as a string of serial thefts.

The woman, who identified herself as, "Lizbud" was arrested as she ran out of a bakery with a loaf of 7 grain whole wheat bread. Police first were alerted to the thefts after neighbor dog chased her away from a tomato vine at a vacant house.

A witness description at a later theft gave law enforcement officials all they needed to capture the alleged criminal.

That theft was tn a rural farm on the outskirts of town. The owner of the stolen sow saw a shadow with one if his pigs in tow.

"Why, she just jumped the fence with my pig!" Farmer John told reporters.


The culprit was later spotted at a local supermaarket in the condiment aisle.
The manager noticed that the suspect was looking at mayonaisse jar while she slipped a head of lettuce into her purse. SHe was chased from the store by security.

The BLT BANDIT, as she is known to police was relleased after questioning.

Her only comment to news organization covering the story was, "It all started with those tomatoes...".

LOL! Richard!! I am sitting here with tears streaming down my face from laughing. Who would have ever suspected that Liz, one of the very pillars of PT, could be capable of such crimes. I know that when the media converges on us for our comments that we will all continue to support her. Eve's downfall was an apple. For dear Liz it was a tomato.

Oh you guys are soooo funny. Well, as I pondered & fretted about
if I should feel guilty taking the tomatoes, apparently my secret garden
is not secret anymore. The word is out. Someone else has discovered
the "free" tomatoes.I only found two on my last visit. Plenty of green
ones left & it will be a race between me & the other thief when they start
to ripen. The inconsiderate thief even left the gate open. The nerve of
some people. LOL.

Lizbud,

See?? I TOLD you that you weren't the only one scarfing the 'matoes!! Grab all the green ones while you can. Put them in a paperbag so they'll ripen.

RICHARD,

ROFLMAO!!!
