'MATERS

The latest harvest from our tomato barrel.




A little later, the artist in the kitchen called me into the room.

Here's what she had created with some of them.

  4. Mmm, homegrown tomatoes. We had a huge garden on the farm, and 50% were tomatoes. We canned tomatoes for months. We just went to Farmer Boys where their cobb salad was awesome.

  7. You're right about home grown tomatoes. The older varieties tasted better or is my age and I don't taste as well as I used to.

  8. Such a pretty arrangement. Don't admire them too long! They start losing flavor as soon as they're sliced.

  9. I still remember the day a friend taught me you could eat a whole tomato the same way you would an apple. Yummmm!
