And what I actually did today (besides watch The View and GMA)

Today has actually been a pretty busy day. The highlight was a wonderful lunch with my friend Tiffanie at Aqua Terra. Tiffanie is also a teacher (a media specialist, to be exact), and she is also enjoying the life of leisure during the summer. :) It was a great time of just catching up, and we have plans to do more of this before school starts.

Afterwards, I did some things to get ready for another trip to Florida tomorrow. We're meeting Darryl's family in Orlando, so I've been packing, running to the store for last-minute things, baking requested brownies and cookies to munch on. My last tomato recipe was a Tomato Tart, which was a flop. It was good in theory--pie crust, garlic drizzled with olive oil, tomatoes, fontina cheese--but the end product was a watery glop of tomato and cheese. Oh, well. Well, I better go--I'm blogging between cooking cycles and packing. I still have lots to do...

I did do the fried green tomatoes, and they were GOOD! Today, though, I got rid of the rest of them--I sent about 10 of them to Max via TimShady. We'll see what recipes he comes up with. :)

So far...tomato sandwich!

We'll definitely be making a tomato pie...same flavor genre as your tart, Amy, but I think it's more substantial (and cheesy!). And thanks for all of the 'maters--I had three (!) big slices on my turkey sanwich yesterday!

I rediscovered my forgotten love for the BLT--that's pretty much been my lunch for the past week. I'm glad you are enjoying the tomatoes!
