Fresh Tomatoes... Again

My sweet neighbor has brought more tomatoes to my front door. He is such a sweetie, I cannot tell him no more, I need a break. So I took them, all eight of them. Snapped a photo of the fresh tomatoes. More tomato sandwiches. They are delicious, so I am not complaining. And when they are gone, they will be gone until next year. So I have found recipes using the tomatoes, and put a few bags in the freezer for stews this winter. For now, I will have a fresh tomato sandwich for dinner. It is very hot and a sandwich is just enough ti fill me up for now. Any dinner plans for you? Hope your day has been good. July is over after today. Still wondering where it went so fast.

@CarolDM don't fresh tomatoes smell wonderful? The ones in the store don't smell that way.

I'm so envious of all those fresh tomatoes you have. The ones I get in the store certainly can't compare to a fresh grown one. They look delicious

@CarolDM it's nice that he has a hobby but sad that he lost his wife last year.

Yes they are perfect for sandwiches, one slice fits the bread. When I have fresh tomatoes, I do not put cheese, because they are so good But I have done that in the past. Thanks!

I bought some lovely tomatoes from the fresh farm store just a very short walk away from here. Dinner was rice with spring onions and the tomatoes I bought with butter. So nice your tomatoes there Carol.

Here we are in August! I just came from the farmers market and it was nice to see all the local vegetables. Lots of tomatoes but I went for local watermelon. I bought one and just ate it. It was delicious.
