Sharing

From an early age we are taught to share.  We are told that those with abundance or more must share with those who have nothing to share.  This year, as most years, we have an abundance of all kinds of tomatoes.  My husband loves to set up tomato tasting tests and every year he finds a new one he likes.

We take some to the thrift shop for distribution.  We also found that our local turtle that hangs out by the front doorstep on some days prefers the small yellow pear shaped ones.  We discovered this after hubby dropped one on the way into the house.

Mr. Turtle preferred the yellow tomato over a very juicy and sweet fig that I laid out next to it. Our tree is producing way too many to eat without sharing.

But this little devil in the photo below pretends he is eating clover in the front lawn and then in the night comes back and DOES NOT SHARE!  His days may certainly be numbered after he did a number of his own on my soy beans and squash!
