TimC Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 My tomatoes are ripening up nicely on the vine (not as good as last year's stash, but oh well). Got some great center cut bacon from the store on Saturday. Toasted up some fresh Wonder white bread and slapped some mayo on it. It's proof there is a higher power.

Kid Cid Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Seriously. I had some straight beefsteak tomatoes on toast with mayo S&P, they were outstanding. Ms Cid made fried green tomatoes on Saturday and they too were yummy. I loves me some fresh garden veggies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frenzal rhomb Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 I'm jealous - weve had so much rain in the northeast - Ive got nothing but blight - waited since May for nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a BLT is just not a BLT without Mayo. I actually like to make a Mayo/Mustard spread. But either way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Dick Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Add some red onion and shredded cheese to it. Awesomeness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimC Posted August 9, 2009 Author Share Posted August 9, 2009 Add some red onion and shredded cheese to it. Awesomeness. Red onion is my new fave since my diet. It's got so much pop. And I use romaine lettuce instead. More bite and crunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimC Posted August 9, 2009 Author Share Posted August 9, 2009 I'm jealous - weve had so much rain in the northeast - Ive got nothing but blight - waited since May for nothing I've lost more than a few plants. I experimented and grew from seed this year which gave me a ton of plants. If all of them came in as I hoped, I would've been swimming in tomatoes. As it stands, I've barely got enough to make a decent sammich. The few vines that did okay are now busting, but they're still green. I'm thinking I'll still be able to have some fresh spaghetti sauce. It's been a tough year for sure. My corn was looking great and now I don't think we're gonna get any.

Rovers Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I'm jealous - weve had so much rain in the northeast - Ive got nothing but blight - waited since May for nothing The lawn has had tons of fungus problems, and my tomats have some late blight, but still a reasonable harvest. Now I am picking them a little early and cutting the affected parts off... which means I have to really chow down on them now, while I can. Which brings me to why I posted this.... Grilled cheese sammiches with tomatoes. On wheat, rye, white, it's all awesome. Add bacon, even better. Tomatoes explode with flavor when they get warmed up.... on a grilled cheese (cheddar) they are incredible. Recently, my preference is on rye with seeds.

Rovers Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I wept. For how long? Crying on a grilled cheese sammich is not recommended. It makes it mushy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
