There's a tomato on Chocolate Stripes that's maturing. I took another look at Old Ivory Egg and the two ripening tomatoes don't look all that different than two days ago.
I met with a friend of mine for dinner last night and gave him a bunch of our tomatoes. He was very grateful for them.
Our Manchester Terrier didn't eat breakfast this morning. For this dog it's a big deal. It means he's probably munching on our tomatoes again...

I hope your terrier hasn't been eating on them. Tomatoes (plant and fruit) contain tomatine and dogs are allergic.
My wife has been dealing with the Manchester Terrier's food allergies for a number of years. But tomatoes haven't been an issue for him at all. He has zero problems eating tomatoes.
I have a problem with it, but that's another issue entirely...
