Great! Here's what I have to munch on so far.
I am making black bean hummus and I ordered a turkey wrap and also a sandwich platter, and bought a veggie platter too. I have flavored unsweetened sparkling water, and diet green tea, plus water to drink. Bennett made a salad with corn, tomatoes and black beans. MY plants are ready and practically begging to go. -Marsha |

Can't wait to meet up in St,Petersburg in March,let's all keep in touch until then. Should we start a thread for that ? Anyone wanting to come check out Antioch Organic Community Garden we are only 1 hour from St.Petersburg and 20 minutes from Tampa.Just give me a P.M. |

Marsha, thanks much for opening your house for the event, for the food, and hundreds of tomato plants you have grown to give away. We had a lot of fun in Plantation .

Wow,
It was wonderful. We had I think about 35 to 50 people total some stayed the whole time, some came and then left later. Here are pictures of the event. tomato-event1.JPGtomato-event2.JPGtomato-event3.JPGtomato-event4.JPGtomato-event5.JPGtomato-event6.JPG You can see most of the hundreds of seedlings in some of the photos, they were put on top of our hottub cover. I am the one with the dark hair and the fuchsia pink top on. Many people brought delicious homemade treats. We had a master gardener there from South Africa, she was a font of information, as was Gardenhappy, who had wonderful organic recipes for fish emulsion and organic pesticide made from boiling a pepper and adding some things. NEw friendships were formed. What do you all think will be a good Saturday in March to do the tasting, and do the Orlando and east central Florida folks think they would attend a tasting located in St.Pete? MArsha |
