I got two new family members and am so excited! My honey let me get a....wait for it...BLACK PRINCE TOMATO!!! WOO HOO!!! Not just that, but I got a Brandywine! She didn't quite get why I was all crazy when I saw them, so first chance I got I showed them (the actual tomatoes) to her (we were at our Farmers Market, the one in West Seattle ROCKS!) and then she got it. They are not the most attractive things but damn sure are when you are eating them. We bought a couple of Black Prince that were so wonderful, and I introduced her to a guily pleasure of mine for dinner, tomato sandwiches. Next it will be drizzled olive oil and herbs on halves, covered in mozzarella and a bit of breadcrumbs then Broiled, hehe...oh it is going to be grand to have REAL tomatoes this year!

While we were there I picked up a few things and our non veggie teen age boy is going to have a hissy fit tonight. I stopped and noticed I was arranging our dinner around His Tastes...oh dear, can't have that! So, we got garlic curls, sugar snap peas, baby bok choy and some broccoli and going to stir fry them up, hehe...
