Default The tomato garden

The Tomato Garden

An old Italian man lived alone in the country. He wanted to dig his tomato garden but it was very hard work as the ground was hard.
His only son, Vincenzo, who used to help him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament.

Dear Vincenzo,

I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant
my tomato garden this year. I am getting too old to be digging up a garden plot. If you were here, my troubles would be over. I know you would dig the garden for me.

Love, Papa


A few days later he received a letter from his son.

Dear Papa,

I'd do anything for you Papa, except dig up that garden. That's where I buried the bodies.

Love, Vinnie

At 4 am the next morning, FBI and local police arrived and dug
up the entire area without finding any bodies. They apologized to the old man and left. The same day the old man received another letter from his Son.

Dear Papa,

Go ahead and plant the tomatoes now. That's the best I could do under the circumstances.
Love, Vinnie

Molto divertente Danno.

Parlando di tomatoes, I've got due thriving tomato plants in
my back yard qui in California and it's Dec. Where else could
this happen? They have several tomatoes on them. Per dire la
verita di solito at this time of year tomato plants don't do
bene per me. Questo e la primera volta. Usually they just kind
of fade away in the winter qui.
