When I was young I didnt like weed pulling either,,,but that didnt stop my father from vlunteering me to help my grandmother in the garden when his stepfather passed away. So ,,,like it or not I Had to go to grandmas and work the garden,My brother was older and worked better,so he stayed home at the farm.Truth is,,I got the better deal,grandma took got care of me! Good food,and didnt make me work in the hot sun,only thing,,,had to watch Lawrence Welch at night,,,lol.,,,,,Heres how the garden bug hit me,,,it was late fall grandma said we need to pick all tomatoes ,bring them in the house so she could wrap each one in newspaper ,and put them in a brown paper bag. She was wrapping some in the house while I was still picking,a friend peddled up on his bicycle,said lets go,I said ,I cant go,got to pick tomatoes,,He grabbed a tomato threw it at me,I Threw one back,, (you know where this is headed) A while later grandma came out,,,,,I still remember it clear as day,,she didnt hit me,,I wish she had,it would of hurt less than the tears of dissapointment in her eyes. My friend left,I helped her picked the rest of the tomatoes,,while she explained that these green tomatoes wont ripen properly unless we wrap them in newspaper and put them in a brown bag. We will be glad to have these later on.Much later well into winter grandma had a family dinner at her house,,During dinner she announced the tomatoe in the salad is from Larrys garden.The next season,and every season after that until she passed,I Really got serious about the garden,and learned a lot from her,,,,Thank you grandma!
