Red, Ripe Tomatoes


We harvested all of these tomatoes on Tuesday evening, right before a thunderstorm hit. The big tomaotes on the left are the pink beefsteaks--NOT very pink, unfortunately. But they're huge and I can't wait to taste them. The small red peppers in the right-hand bowl are fajita bells. And on the right is just over 2 pints worth of the sweetest, most delicious grape tomatoes. I love July!

  3. Thanks for stopping by, ladies! When I first started gardening last year I was surprised at how sweet grape tomatoes could actually taste from your own backyard. Emily, I hope yours mature soon!
