Look what I brought in from the garden this evening! Another whopper sized Cherokee Purple tomato! I would have liked to let it ripen on the vine another day or two, but it looked like it was going to start splitting, and I DID NOT want the bugs to get it! So, into the house it went... 18.5oz! The largest tomato I've ever grown!
Well over a POUND of fruit! That's awesome!

HOLY TO-MATO! That is a whopper, indeed! I love it. I've never had that type, but I'll bet it's delicious. You can't beat a room temp tomato, fresh from the garden...YUM! enjoy!!!

Gorgeous. The result of great weather and a green-thumb gardener! Here in Vancouver, BC, we're enduring a record-breakingly cool, damp June. Sigh...

I'm so envious of your garden. My current garden is not producing like it should and I'm particularly struggling with my tomatoes. :-( I love watching all of your plants growing and producing. :-)

Holy cow that's huge! What are you going to make with it?

That reminds me of a song,
"The largest tomato I have ever known" It's sorta sad it ends with a BLT and an ice tea, however the tomato has been cut to pieces and people are smiling. Sorry, tomato............Love, Dad

I agree with Carol; when you cut into one, can we see a slice? Another gorgeous one! Hey, love your updated blog photo of yourself and one of the frizzles! You're looking mar-ve-lous these days!!

I have been looking over on TEG for suggestions for Heirloom tomatoes.
I would love to see that sliced. ;) hugs...

WOW, they are getting bigger and bigger! Can't wait to see what else comes off the vine. Thanks for sharing.
