Tomatoes In March?!?

I guess a tomato plant is nothing out of the ordinary, but this plant came about in unusual circumstances. My friend Linda gave me a strawberry plant last year after they moved here and came to dinner. We got a few strawberries from it (maybe Rocco was snacking on them all) but it died. And I thought there was a weed taking over in the planter. I let it go for a little while, then asked Will about it. We both thought it looked (& smelled) like a tomato plant. But how could that be? So we waited some more and then saw tomatoes growing. How crazy! I had to put a huge stake in the planter the other day, and tie it to the post so it wouldn't fall over. Watering it like a feign too. Hopefully these bad boys turn red and they are tasty! I'll let you know....
