binky.

The tomato plants I stuck in the ground back in late May are finally bearing fruit. One of the varieties is your good old garden-variety Beefsteak. The plant is huge; it seems like it’s been putting all its energy into the green matter in order to support the tomatoes. When we got back from vacation, I discovered a HUGE tomato hidden in the vines. We’ve waited patiently for it to ripen. It’s so big that I thought we should name it, and Rob suggested Binky. We carried it with great ceremony into the kitchen on a platter, like the boar’s head at a Madrigal dinner.

Meet Binky.
