My first entry ever was about a tomato that cost $4.64. It still haunts me. Today I experienced summer love out of my own garden. There is nothing better on a summer day than a tomato sandwich. Nothing. Just look at this beautiful big ol' boy! LOVE at first bite. All you need is two slices of bread, a generous smear of mayo, a sprinkle of kosher salt, a grind of pepper, and a splash of red wine vinegar. Divine tomato. Look at these wonderful little cherry tomatoes, that came up as volunteers from last summer, all twenty nine of them. I eat these like candy or treat them like a healthy "bloody mary". For that you need a little bowl of vodka, cherry tomatoes, and a bowl of Jane's crazy salt. Get a toothpick, dip your cherry tomato in the vodka, and then dip it in the crazy salt, and pop it in your mouth. Crazy good, Nan
