Peppers and tomatoes oh my

It appears that the Topsy Turvy hasn't let us down, except it forgot to tell the plants in it that they need to stop growing toward the sun and cooperate. We're going to have to put in supports to keep them upright which sort of defeats the point of the damn thing, but that's okay.

Our tomato plant, which we fondly call Little Otik, after the most disturbing movie ever, has finally started to bear tomatoes. We only got half way through the movie before we turned it off, but I have to admit that I'm curious about the end. And it's been the topic of a lot of laughs. In case you feel like spending $27, here it is:



There are at least two tomatoes that we can see now. Here's Otik in all of his glory, amazing us every day with his growth:



And his tomatoes:





Check out all of his flowers:



I love this photograph because I accidentally caught my husband watering the basil plant while I was snapping shots of Otik. You can see the precision of his watering while he tries to water through the top of the Topsy Turvy through a small hole. God forbid he catch me drowning the plants. It's serious business, as you can see.



And my pepper plant. He's out of control.



Lots of flowers are appearing and this guy:
