You Say Tomato, I Say "Tomotto"

This little girl is such a beauty, and it is exciting to watch her grow. And growing up right alongside her are her many brothers and sisters and cousins . . .

. . . like the grape tomatoes . . .

. . . and the Romas . . .

. . . and the patios, just to name a few.
The tomato is one of our favorite things to grow on our patio. I especially like the smell of their vines. And the tomato must surely be one of the more versatile items the garden produces. It is, of course, perfect for adding to salads, great on a chicken salad sandwich, a chicken sandwich, excellent on a burger. And delicious, tomato based sauces are a great reward for the tomato grower. We use some of the small tomatoes in appetizer recipes, and sliced tomatoes are a yummy addition to homemade pizza. And making stewed tomatoes is a cinch, as is fresh tomato juice.
Well, it is time for beddy bye.
Nighty night.
