Tomato Tango (Heirloom Amish Paste)

Another photo I wish I were in:))) I also miss my fresh tomato/basil/cheese omelettes! Our 8-day bout with uncommon, bitter cold and wind is finally ending, with snow! The coldest day was -16F (-27C) including wind chill; normal is 25F (-4C.) These luscious Tomatoes were VERY happy in my Garden, growing in profusion at twice their "normal" size, 20-30 on each 5 ft. plant. Nearly the size of my closed fist, they were VERY "meaty", had hardly any juice, a thick skin, and were perfect for cooking and sauce, and my "lighter than air omelettes."

Oh...looks so good Les. Wonderful capture of the highlights and colors in this. A nice reminder of warm days.

Ok, so now I want an omelette with fresh tomatoes. I can feel warmth from this pic too.
