Winter tomato

Somewhere last summer I sowed some tomatos. Can you imagine how sursprised I was when finally, months later, little teeny tiny tomato plants came up!?

Unfortunately it was rather late in the season when that happened. And with the cold setting in and all, I decided to take one of the plants out of the garden and take it with me to work.

We had just moved our office to the 8th floor with a large window-sill and lots of sun. I didn't expect too much out of it, but if it would have any chance, it would be there.

And look at what it got me:

Some weeks ago these beauties had grown and where actually turning red! Who would've thought!?


With lots of sun and the nice airconditioned environment, they soon developed in decently-sized real red tomatoes!

And when they were bright red, we picked, washed and ate them! It's a wonderful idea being able to eat something that you've grown yourself. Well, ok, not really 'yourself' of course, you know what I mean, right!? ;)


An extra pic of the view of my new office, it's wonderful. I can see lots of airplanes, and the colors at dawn and sunsets are totally awesome.
