Collards and Tomatoes

This is a strange time of year. Tomatoes and collards do not usually co-exist in the a garden but this year with the very warm weather this can happen. Interestingly, I think because the days are short and the temperature a little cooler the tomatoes do not ripen as fast. If you bring them in though in just 24 hours they will be amazingly red, ripe and delicious.
These are not the prettiest tomatoes but they taste good.
Here is about a half pound of collard greens that are going into a pot of soup that I am making for work.

The New Farmer has been rambling in the north country but some snow has shooed here back home. She robbed the garden today picking turnips, tomatoes, okra, lettuce and rocket to make up 846 grams off food.

I have 1.798 KG to add today and this brings the total to 199.331KG
