Tomatoes, too!

Not the first, but the second, third and fourth of the season. Just a few little tiny Sungolds, the largest only about a 1/2 inch across, but HUGE flavor, oh, so sweet. I've never had these before, but will definitely be putting them in the garden again. The plant is getting huge (it's over 6 feet tall already and has tons of greenies still growing and hundreds of blossoms just getting started. Here's a shot of it from 2 weeks ago with most of it at 4+ feet tall and one branch well over 5 feet (with the heavily producing basil, beneath it). Please ignore the crab grass and my neighbors garage...

Enjoy,
Lorence

Boogie's Next Recipe: Caprisi Salad Sandwich

Another night time snack adventure. Boogie was hungry, and in a creative mood.

First, he went to the yard and picked some fresh basil. Then he mixed up a bit of olive & Mrs. Dash® Tomato Basil Seasoning Blend in a small bowl and spread it on the bottom half of the only roll we had in the house, a day old kaiser roll. He topped that with some slices of fresh mozzarella:

He sliced some tomtato and topped the mozzarella with that:

(honing his knife skills... he does pretty well for an 8 yr old.)


Then more of the olive oil mixture:

Ready to slice:Ready to eat!

Yumminess ensues...

Enjoy,
