And tomatoes are so super easy to grow. The first spring I was in this house I did tomatoes and HOLY COW they took over! I had tomatoes coming out my ears! Peppers of any type can get picky some years - last year was terrible for our peppers. Not quite sure why, but they just didn't do so well. In fact, I was lucky we had farmer's market in town last summer because I ended up breaking down and buying some. That's when I decided to do something different with the garden this year. Seriously though, when you finally do make it, you'll LOVE IT! There is nothing better than homemade salsa with ingredients from the garden! And tomatoes are so super easy to grow.

I keep saying I'm going to but it never happens :( Although, I'll be honest, it'll probably come from store-bought ingredients, lol! I'm just learning how to get my "flowers, trees and bushes" gardens going. I started last year and I really want to focus on that again this year. Maybe next year I'll do the veggie garden? That said though ... I *really* would like to do at least one tomato plant. As you already know, tomatoes are my absolute favorite!! Anyway, back to the salsa - I really want to try out your recipe for the salsa because first of all I love how "open-ended" it is. It gives me the basics of what I need to know and then I can pick and choose what we like. Seriously, my family loves salsa so much I can't buy it fast enough! (Guess I should be happy that one of my kids' favorite snacks is chips and salsa, eh?) I can’t wait to try making my own batch of salsa this year!
