    Does a lil o grape tomato count. We've had a few of those. Oh so good!
    I'm just starting to get little tomatoes on my plants. I stopped by a big farm yesterday on my way to town just to get some goodies.

    We've had a few of our cherry tomatoes. Last night, with dinner we had a medley of heirloom cherry tomatoes and cucumbers (black cherry tomatoes and white cucumbers!) it was sooooo good.

    Oooh, I'm jealous. I got my garden in a bit late this year, so I still have little green tomatoes just hanging there mocking me!

    Won't be long though! Hope you enjoyed your yummy maters!

    Not yet. We planted the big tomatoes so they won't be ready for awhile.

    I've only had cherry tomatoes. It won't be too much longer for the big ones.

    We planted our garden late this spring, so it will be a few weeks.
    Your 'mater sandwich sounds so good! Right now, I'm making do with some locally grown tomatoes, grown right here in our valley.

    I picked a bag full of tomatoes yesterday, half a bag of grape tomatoes, and a bag of cukes. There is nothing better than a fresh-picked tomato.
