The Aftermath
Portia…
AKA “Spawn of Satan”
In about 2 minutes, she managed to destroy about a dozen green tomatoes and tomato blossoms. She also has a taste for my fig leaves. (my new baby Kadota’s fig leaves). I’m willing to sacrifice a few tomatoes. But, if she kills one of my new fig trees. She’s going to be in the doghouse. (Well, after we buy a doghouse.) Between Portia and the other wild life critters, it really is a challenge to keep everything alive.
But, we did manage a mini harvest:
8 cherry tomatoes
a handful of blackberries
4 baby radishes
1 baby carrot
one bouquet of oregano
several sprigs of silver thyme
Oh, well. There’s no crying over spilt milk… or crushed tomatoes.
