Postkort fra 2046: The Tomato Vote on Toftegårds Plads

The Tomato Vote on Toftegårds Plads

Kære Kasper,

You will laugh. Or you should. I have started a small rebellion at the greenhouse on Toftegårds Plads, and the ringleader is, of all people, Hanne from number 14.

The soil sensors — those little blue stakes the kommune installed last autumn, you remember — have decided our tomatoes are "under-optimal." They send polite notifications. They suggest. They nudge. Yesterday one of them told Bent to please step away from the basil, in Danish so careful it almost apologised.

So Hanne taped a piece of cardboard to the trellis. TOMATERNES VALG, it says. We voted. The tomatoes won 6 to 2 against the irrigation schedule. Bent voted on behalf of the tomatoes. Nobody is sure that counts...

The sensors are sulking, I think. Or maybe just recalculating. The little lights blink slower when they disagree with you, did you know that? Preben would have found this hilarious — he always said plants knew more than committees.

Anyway. Come down for midsummer. There may be tomatoes. There may not. There will certainly be opinions.

Knus fra mormor, B.
