Some of the veggies I brought home from work. I hope my coworker continues to bring in her surplus, because they’re delicious. She said her tomatoes should be ready soon, for which I shall be eternally grateful. Grocery store tomatoes are terrible. However, while at the store this morning, I suddenly couldn’t stand it any longer, and had to pick up some green tomatoes. It’s just not summer if you don’t have fried green tomatoes, right? Only, the stickers on the greenies say they are “vine ripened.” M’kaythen!

I managed to find a couple that had a decent amount of pink and light orange in them. They make better fried tomatoes, because the flavor has developed a bit. Pure green tomatoes are too hard, even after frying, and they just don’t taste as nice.
