I am jealous.

Only Johnny's has arrived here.

Tom,

I was lookin' at all the accessories in the back of one new seed catalog and noticed this:

"Photomato Max: A completely safe and edible polymer based compound in aerosol or trigger pump spray for enhancing the natural glow of tomatoes prior to photography sessions. Available with or without metal flake sparkles and comes in high gloss or simi gloss finishes, and in two flavors ... Hellman's Mayo and Kraft Miracle Whip. Used to highlight the beauty of heirloom tomatoes by such famous growers as New Jersey's Tom Micholas and New York's Carolyn Male. Each order of two or more cans or bottles of Photomato Max will be accompanied by a trial size container of 'Crack-E-Racer' a new, fast curing, epoxy-based putty for quickly filling in radial and concentric cracks in flawed tomato shoulders. 'Crack-E-Racer comes with a set of wax furniture crayons in hues designed to replicate any of many heirloom tomato skin tones."

Tom, you really need to get your hands on some 2007 seed catalogs before your trip to the Med ... just in case you get that camera fixed and want to set up some tomato photo sessions in Crete and Athens.

If I don't get that camera back in time for the trip, I gotta use Dads Nikon ... pretty sure he has the "pro" set up (aka no wax feature) ...
But tomatoes will still pose ! No sweat ~
Its one of my list of "to do" ...

I'm still overwelmed with TT selection ...
I mean ... WOW ~

Where do they grow all those
hybrids out ? Seed saving units must be
out of this world !Their staff must be huge !
I'm just really amazed ...
I can only wish to grow an "nth" of
all those maters ~

I have also gotten my Territorial Tomato catalog and neighbor got one from PArk's so I assume mine will be here sortly.
Still waiting for TGS.
I posted a question thread on TGS, also.

Oh, forgot to mention.
The new Park's catalog has a big blunder. LOL!
They have a pic of Pineapple and has a title Pineapple Hybrid, but they do have "heirloom" in the blurb.
