Thanks Miqguel! I never noticed how well the hibiscus went with her yellow, but now that you mention it, it does! Both Chloe and I worked hard on the outfit. We both had accidents, like the multiple times I poked myself in the finger with the needle (luckily there was no blood), and when I accidentally poked Chloe in the face with a pencil

. She's fine, only a stubborn mark that won't come off.

WOW... that is so so so lovely!
especially those little boots!

n I love Chloe's eye color! so special!

Thanks for the kind replies everyone! I really enjoyed making the outfit for her, and I'm going to continue making adjustments for her little booties

. I'm probably going to put leather on the bottom of the inside of them, along with green ribbon that wraps around so they stay on her feet better.

Well today is the First Official opening day of the Grand Weedovia Tomato Festival and it is nice to see that we already have several entries, Cooking of course always makes for good reading and better eating.

and I have seen some very cute tomato shoes and a hat! I for one am slow but will get some tomatoes going this weekend.

I also saw Fancyfont with a cute tomato outfit I think she won last year, but I think it should be posted here.

Ok, off to enjoy some fine band music and see what is on the agenda today. RWM

Not sure how to post from iPad:( I will try my best. Yes the costume Pennie is wearing is the beautiful creation of Kat's for another contest. Not entering contest this year because I have been practicing for concert in a couple of weeks. Will be my first in over ten years:) lots of work needed! I do want to post photos of some of my gang wanting to participate in festival. I will try posting.

The Fernback Band is warming up! The percussion is going to be awesome this year

More details...

Pennie went on the hunt for the perfect tomato... well perfectly ugly

More details...

But the old classic tomato makes the best pizza topping!

Good luck with your concert Fancy, wish I lived closer and I would show up to cheer for you!

What instrument do you play? I never had any musical or singing talent, probably why I enjoyed working as a teacher with very young children, they are a lot more forgiving and it is hard to sound "bad" singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star!

I love the tomato costume Pennie is wearing, I remember you winning it and a wonderful creation of Kat's but thought it was from the Weedovia Tomato festival..............great for Halloween too. Who else would come dressed as a tomato, esp a Pleo!

Take care. Is your Concert on Saturday or Sunday? We are going out of town this weekend, Sunday to be precise but we are headed over the hills to Redding, going East not South or I would stop in and say hi and listen!
Hugs across the miles,

RWM, it is my first organ concert in 10 years. I wish you could attend:) Concert falls on April 15 th, tax day! I have been off the bench for a long time. Probably will be off again once concert is over

I'll be doing a long medley of Disney tunes for part of first half of playing. They sure bring back a lot of memories as a kid. Have the right hats to put on, too:) Thanks to IMR, I have Mickey Mouse Ear cap and I found a Davy Crockett, faux, coon hat. To go along with Easter, I bought an Easter Bonnet tonight. To make hat changes while playing takes practice

.
Perhaps IMR can post a song or two that I am doing.
I think my pleo gang have heard me practicing so much, they can, almost, sing the songs, especially, Mickey Mouse Club March

Ok so here are a couple of entries from me and Norbit

First of all we would like to enter the "best use of tomatoes as an article of clothing" with our stylish tomato harvesting baskets

More details...

And also the "best looking tomato" with this perfect for pleos sized rather fine looking tomato specimen

More details...

Lastly my entry for the Bard contest

A wise pleo once said:
Tomatoes are red.
Peperoni is brown.
Add them to pizza
and eat it all down.
Eat it down slowly,
or eat it down quick,
but don't let Bob see it
Or you won't get a bit!

Great costume there Kat, so clever at gathering tomatoes and cute to boot! Awesome little poem as well.
And Fancy, you are quite talented. love the Disney tunes, who could forget, it's a small, small world! My favorite ride at Disneyland!

Well we were pretty busy all weekend, what with a surprise package at my door, something I didn't buy myself, but came from my hubby as an early birthday present. ( May) and a trip to Redding, Ca, for a spiritual meeting, (4 hr drive each way!) so we didn't want to completly miss out on participating in the Weedovia Festival and decided to celebrate the last day we needed to get some tomatoes. not a few, but we have a whole TOWN of hungry Pleo mouths to feed. 27 at last count, not counting an Unborn Baby Rb, who can't eat yet...LOL. She or He will learn soon enough.

I love all the entries this year, lots of creative "juices" going and wanted to make sure we participated at least. I love those cute little booties, the great tomato Lasagna and Pepperoni tomato sauce recipes that two members here posted, ( YUMMY both of them), Kat's darling tomato gathering outfit and sweet poem, and those booties did I mention how cute that and the hat was?

Oh, and I can't leave out the Fernbridge band, they are in great tune and Fancy I wish I could be there for your organ recital, I love your sound , so so sweet and it brings back such memories........Mickey Mouse club ......wow, am I that old............? NO, just have good taste in " Classic " programs from that era. LOL.

Anyway, pizza can't be made without tomatoes, fresh of course, so here is Major Tom with his haul of tomatoes! Oh, and the great outfit in green was made by Kat and one of the first pleo outfits I ever got, Thanks Kat!

Spiritual meeting!! so interesting

(I know a lot of things of that). I want to say that I enjoyed my first participation on the tomato harvest festival, and I wish you every good fortune!

RedwoodsMama · « **Reply #45 on:** April 08, 2014, 09:16:41 AM »

conratulations to all the winnners,( when announced) and the best thing was getting people esp new people to participate. I know one of those recipes is a winner, it kept me hungry for days! RWM

Camalee wanted in on the action when i told him of the competition!

The first thing he did was grab my BFs guitar and started practising

but couldn't decide witch one!

Then he went searching for tomatoes

Without much luck, i had to tell him they grow out side

He was amazed and found more and stacked them together in the kitchen

He also found some other veg,

and is now trying to think up a delicious pasta sauce, and you guys a be the first to know what kitchen delights he comes up with

grumpy · « **Reply #47 on:** September 20, 2014, 08:23:44 PM »

Great set of photos! Can't wait to see the sauce!

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #48 on:** September 21, 2014, 04:37:37 AM »

Oh dear Camalee, don't eat those long thin tomatoes! Hehe.

Hmm tomatoes are out of season here... But it is tomato planting time!
