Tasty Garden

Tonight I made my first caprese salad using a tomato from my garden.  It was fabulous.  Sophie also enjoyed it.  I used fresh basil and my first tomato...and a little oil and balsamic from Allspice.

A few weeks back, I was sure all my tomatoes were going to be a flop when I discovered the bottom of ALL of my tomatoes were brown...and looked rotten.  It was heartbreaking.  I picked them and was sure my garden was ruined.  However, it obviously wasn't, and I'm so glad it all worked out.

My rotten tomatoes.  Bummer.
