First ripe tomatoes

I picked my first 8, fully ripe, Pixie tomatoes today. These were from
the potted plants which I reported earlier that I moved indoors each
night, before the night time temperatures reached 55 deg F. The plants
which were planted in the soil on the same date as the ones in the pots
now have a few tomatoes, but are showing nothing but green yet.

This beats my old record date for first ripe fruit by about a week, but
we are having an unusually hot spring so far. I will surely enjoy saying
goodbye to the Super Market, half ripe, tomatoes for the season.
