sucker!


you knew i was going to fall for this, didn't you? yep, it's the topsy turvy tomato planter, straight from an infomercial to my yard. actually, this one was only $6 at gordman's yesterday. thusly, i have to give it a try. if you look closely, you'll see one of my heirloom brandywine tomatoes at the bottom going "what the?"


peace to you from the back forty, my friends.

ha ha. every time that comes on, i think "hmmmmmmm...." and then jace reminds me that they say "but wait, there's more" and that means it could be a trick.

:)

let me know how it turns out. trick or not, i am very curious.

I too want to see if this works. The commercial is kinda funny...these people picking perfect tomatoes from this upside-down thing! keep up posted on the progress!!

Seriously, What the??

Please explain. And then tell me where to get one. :-)

What are those little guys in the second pic?

My kids got me the topsy turvey for Mother's Day. I haven't bought a plant yet... Your tan one is much prettier than the lime green.

Oh, and thanks for the "thusly." It makes me smile.

This reminds of the little water/turkey baster looking plant waterer the boys are always telling me I NEED
