(1) Drooled over photos of gorgeous tomato posts on others' IG with envy.
(2) Checked out overseas heirloom seeds and drooled (again!) over Ananas Noire, Brandywine, Creme Brulee, Chocolate Cherry and all their other siblings or cousins and secretly disappointed at the appalling lack of varieties locally.
(3) Stalked the tomato section of every supermarkets for any newcomer.
(4) Bought tomato plants for soon to be vine ripen tomatoes.
(6) Fondled and caressed tomatoes lovingly in the hope that I would grow them just as beautifully.
(7) Hoarded ripe tomatoes in the veggie compartment waiting for "the right time" to sow the seeds.
(8) Happy even though my shopping spree yielded nothing except for a couple of tomatoes. (It's the seeds that I want)
(8) A friend walked into his kitchen, came out with a bowl of tomatoes and handed the bowl to me.
(9) At one particular supermarket, this same guy always wore this "I know what nonsense you're up too... don't deny" smile whenever I approached (where else if not the tomato section!)
Thank you but don't crack your head to buy me a gift. A packet of tomato seeds (heirloom please) will be just great and if you ever catch me stalking you / your garden please excuse me but I could just be admiring your tomatoes... with envy.
