Is there anything better than a homegrown tomato?

The beautiful juicy yellow tomato in the photo was lovingly grown in our garden by MO. The cool-looking heirloom was from the farmers market. The one from the farmers market was very pretty (detail in photo below) , but I have to admit ours was much tastier! I made this gorgeous salad last night by simply layering tomato slices with a little bit of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, fresh garden basil and s&p. Scrumptious!

What a beautiful salad! I haven't visited your blog in a while, but I just thought of you and your blog after viewing 'Julie and Julia' yesterday. You should definitely check it out! A must see for any foodie...and/or blogger.
