Heat Wave Good for Something!

The heat wave here blazed through the weekend.  A/C bill undoubtedly through the roof this month!  But the good news is – all that late summer sunshine kissed my green boulder-sized, rock hard heirloom tomatoes and made them blush juicy ripe!  Check out this amazing harvest!!! YOWZA!

Who would’ve thought a few days of sunshine would transform the tangle of unripened tomatoes in my organic vegetable garden to a juicy heirloom tomato paradise?

Look at the juicy ripe sliced open tomato – oh my GOSH – PERFECTION in tomato form!
Tonight’s recipe is a yummy heirloom tomato summer salad with fresh basil (also harvested today), a little lemon juice, a little lime juice, a little home grown avocado, olive oil, salt, a wee bit of garlic grilled with homegrown shallots… oooh do I have to wait til dinner?  Mmmm, will be enjoying this long-awaited treat!
