And we have TOMATOES!

After weeks and weeks of patiently (and impatiently) waiting I have ripe tomatoes. Last weekend I had a few to enter in the Men's Garden Show but this morning I went and picked some more out of the garden. I love tomatoes, I had a box of them to take to work and share but I forgot it at home. I decided that the tomatoes were too pretty to not take pictures of, have a look....

These are Super Sweet 100s. They are so delicious and sweet, once they start to ripen they don't stop!

Here are some more angles, (I have to take plenty of photos so when it is cold and snowy outside I can come back and reminisce about sun warmed tomatoes!)

This big tomato was one that I blogged about a few posts ago. Here it is on the beautiful Martha Stewart Collection cutting board that my friend Claudine K. over at Good Things: Life of a Martha Stewart Wannabe gave to me!

And here is my first tomato sandwich of the summer! It was on honey wheat bread with provolone, dijon mustard, and salt. Simplicity is best!
