BIRTHDAY TOMATO & SANDWICH
It may turn out to be the hottest day so far this year today...on my Birthday......I was born on the hottest day of the year in California, and my mother remembers it well, because there was no A/C in the hospital! I heard the story many times...
Since my daughter and granddaughter are taking me out to dinner Saturday for my Birthday..., when it is supposed to cool off, I thought I should have something special on my 'real' day.
These photos are it!!!!
My first Tomato this year from my garden, and my first Tomato Sandwich of the year!!!! I love them and crave them all year...but only those made with home grown tomatoes....
As a kid, everyday, the first thing I did when I got home from school was go out to the garden and pick huge Beefsteak and Heirloom(that's what they call them these days), tomatoes and make myself a sandwich....I miss those tomatoes, because of their delicious FLAVOR, because they were from the RICH SOIL of Lake County, Northern California...near Mendocino...best soil I have ever grown anything in. Wish I had photos of the Roses and iris we grew in that soil...huge and glorious....!
Here was my lunch today....it was yummy....for me it has to have whole grain bread...homegrown tomatoes, and Hellmans/Best Foods Mayonnaise.
