At last!! Our crop of backyard tomatoes has started to ripen. We planted a lot of the small varieties. Just pop one in your mouth..so sweet. Garden to kitchen, can't get more local than that. I have been very envious of cookiecrumbs crop for some time now, I think she has more of a green thumb than us. So what to do with these beauties. I believe in the KISS (keep it simple stupid) style of food. A tomato salad... that will do pig. We used it a couple nights as side dish for dinner.

Greg, I was gonna ask how your 'maters were doing! Jeez, finally. Well, Miss Smartypants GreenThumb here has a bit of comeuppance to report: My vines are nearly depleted. They don't seem to be making any new blossoms, so I've actually (gasp!) bought tomatoes recently. I probably lurched out of the starting gate a little too soon. Fun while it lasted, though.
Lovely food you're feeding yourself...
