They look yummy, with just a little salt that's the only way to go! Enjoy...

I would kill for some fresh ones right now! Yum!

Blue Sky Dreaming said...

Oh, those tomatoes look wonderful! I can just taste the sweetness with a touch of salt!! Enjoy!

Susan said...

Ahhh, the simple things are the most enjoyable. It's been tough this year getting our tomatoes to ripen with the cool nights and not-so-hot days. Finally getting some though. Love that last picture.

Susan said...

Oops, I forgot to say, I love your new header. Beautiful sunsets are my most favorite thing in the world!

Ruth said...

Summer. Our big ones are still not red.

What does the title mean?

ds said...

Mmmmm! Perfect.

Where did you take the header picture? It looks very familiar to me...

GailO said...

Kate - I grow these every year and they never let me down:)

MaggieGem - Especially when they are still warm from the sun...

Kamana - I agree about the bursting in the mouth...that is one thing I like about these tomatos...they are small enough to pop in your mouth without getting squirted!

Delwyn - This is the only tomato plant I grew this year...I'm really getting lazy...

steviewren - I'm thinking now that I should have grown a lot more...

Gigi - I agree!

elk - The colors are so many shades of red...I didn't think it would turn out this well in the photo...

Willow - Thanks for peeking in!

Tracey - I almost didn't get these as my grandchildren like to eat them too...

BlueSkyDreaming - Thanks for stopping by...and I do love those big crystals of kosher salt...

Susan - This plant is probably doing well because it is in a pot on my deck and I move it around to find the sun...I gave up on my basil:(...Thanks about the August header:)

Ruth - You must be recuperating from all the activities:)...Sweet 100 is the name of the cherry tomato...like Big Boy or Early Girl...

ds - The header picture was taken last year in Maine from my best friend's cottage...we're going back soon...

I've been enjoying my tomatoes too! It's a shame they come ripe all at once and then they are gone :-( They are just soooo good!

those look nice, we keep talking about starting our own garden but it has yet to happen.
