Oh! Things are starting to happen! A few small green tomatoes have appeared on the vines.
I really want them to hurry up, get fat and ripen! More food needed for the tomato plants. I have plenty of tomato food so that's not a problem.
When I went out there to tie up the tomato plants, I discovered a slug on the lettuce. It had already munched a whacking great hole in one of the leaves. I had always assumed that the big black ones didn't eat stuff in the garden. This one was caught in the act!
I just plucked it off and promptly threw it at my husband. He was not impressed. It was an underhand toss. It wasn't like I was throwing a baseball. . . . I thought I was being very funny.

EEEEW big black slug, nasty. But I suppose he was beautiful to another big black slug. Was that the only one? I bet there are more lurking somewhere.
Nice black slug picture!
