Why you buggin?

Mary,Mary. Did you get anything to grow this crazy dry Ohio summer?

Well, there are no silver bells nor cockle shells, but there are some delicious yellow xitomatls that rank within the top three your humble narrator has ever eaten. Thanks to Jen donating a couple plants for our new (as of this year) garden, I have been able to cook up some family favorites including Mr. Steve's famous five/tenths alarm chili and, more recently, gazpacho. On top of that, there are still a bunch of tiny tomatitos growing for a plentiful harvest to come.

Zach helped me harvest a couple of ripe ones today we can use for lunch tomorrow. Hopefully, I can whip up something he and Amelia will like. They are both seasoned connoisseurs when it comes to tomato recipes who will only compliment the really tasty dishes; a bit like the judges panel on Iron Chef... well, all except for that one celebrity judge actress who thinks everything is "so good".
