Planting time!  There's nothing I love more than garden-fresh tomatoes, and this year I'm really gearing up to have an amazing array of colors, sizes, and types.  And the names!  I love their names!  So far, I've planted 168 plants, and their names follow (in no particular order):

Oxheart
Purple Calabash
Paul Robeson
Black Cherry
4th of July
Cherokee Purple
Aunt Ruby's German Green
Big Rainbow
Sun Gold
Early Girl
Green Doctor Frosted
Prudens Purple
Pineapple
Abe Lincoln
Indigo Rose
San Marzano
Orange-Banana Paste
Roma
Black Krim
Big Daddy
Big Boy
Green Zebra
Ritgers
Sweet Oliver

I'm looking forward to a summer salad of all different colors of tomatoes.  Maybe a little feta cheese, torn up fresh basil, drizzle of olive oil...
