The tomatoes are coming on strong. My CSA actually has a full box of green tomatoes that says “please take a bagful!” I’ve discovered that they redden up nicely in just a few days. Meanwhile, my tomato plants are bearing steadily.

My favorite salsa is fresh pico de gallo. Now that I am rich with tomatoes, I looked up the recipe and was very pleased that it is simply tomatoes, onions, chili and cilantro. My pepper plant is giving me chilies, as is my CSA, so I was in business. I had onions and cilantro from the farmers market. Into the mini-food processor, salt to taste, and it was fantastic. We made soft tacos and it was a heavenly meal. We’ll repeat that tonight.
