Tomatos - or Love Apples

Today my "other half" is making tomato sauce, 10 Kg of it, and here are some of the
fruit he's cutting up right this minute...its a ritual that happens each year at
this time.

Yes, they used to be called Love Apples, didn't they? They look so tasty. I love tomatoes and had a craving for them during my first pregnancy. I remember buying a (paper) bag of tomatoes and eating them all the way home, so I had to go up and buy more.

Ah, yes, you live in the other half of the world where it is summer! Keep that "other half"!! Mine likes the results but not the prep.

This is gorgeous Von! V
I just made and canned 18 quarts of tomato sauce over the past 3 weeks (using tomatoes that had been frozen from last summer). :)

Get it while it's still fresh.
Good arrangement having the stalks sticking out to the front like this, allowing the contrasting green to break up the red. The shallow DOF pulls the forward ones out nicely, giving a sense of depth to the fruit.
