Excellent pictures, too, Jo Ann! Very good composition and detail. Just out of curiosity, is that a very good cellphone camera or something more techie? (I take most of mine with my iPhone 4S, but every now and then I unholster the Nikon DSLR ...)
Tonight I slaughtered a bunch of eggplant from the garden and am making a big bowl of baba ganoush. I took a picture of the last batch, so I won't do that again ... )

But tomatoes always make me salivate too. Jo Ann, what did you think of the chocolate cherry tomatoes you grew? I see them on top there. My plant was quite prolific but I didn't think the tomatoes themselves had a very developed flavor.

Jenise, I am sure JoAnn will chime in here about this but since I have been buying them at the Farmer's Market, I thought I'd give you my observation. They are a rather tangy tomato, sometimes I even detect a hint of smokiness. I like to combine them with Sungolds, and yellow pear. The Sungolds are so sweet, the Yellow is mild, so the Chocolates make for an interesting combo. When I eat them plain for a snack, I salt them up a bit and add a drop of balsamic on top. They are yummy that way. Don't you think the soil has a lot to do with flavor? I'm getting Cherokee Purples at the market right now that are so darn sweet, but the ones I grow are not as sweet.
