This is one of the heirloom tomatoes I planted. It's my favorite - I believe it's Mortgage Lifter (I I forgot to look this morning as I was leaving). See how it's meaty and there isn't very much of that watery seed stuff? It's good fresh. In a salad. But mostly in a sandwich. With mayo and black pepper. That's as far as I've gotten. It's so good I don't want to wait to cook it. So I say try those heirloom varieties. They've produced fruit like this with little care. Just some watering. Thursday, August 20, 2009

I feel like I've come back to an old friend. How are you, Molly? I LOVE, LOVE fresh tomatoes and this one looks awesome! I'll remember your advice.

I must say, Miss Molly, this tomato looks fit for a queen. I don't know exactly what heirloom variety means but I will check it out. I've had little to no success with my Topsy Turvy tomato plant growing. I think my starter plant had a blight of some sort. Probably better that we got no fruit from the wrinkled looking vine.
ReplyDeleteDelicious! Love nothing better on a sandwich..I am waiting for my Mr. Stripey to ripen. I check it daily..yumm! After my successful tests with containers this summer, I am planting heirlooms next summer.
ReplyDeleteI had a lovely tomato sammie this afternoon with mayo, salt, and a little fresh cracked pepper on plain white bread...it was so yummy.
ReplyDeleteHi Molly,
