My favourite is the world's smallest cantaloupe (spelled incorrectly, ahem) next to the world's biggest tomato. I should have put a ruler in there for scale. They were about 5 inches wide. Can you tell we don't live in a tropical region? The cantaloupe is so cute we almost don't want to cut into it.
I have no idea what variety those yellow tomatoes are, but they are really delish. They almost taste salty at first bite. I gave them a valiant effort (you may recall my issue with tomatoes), but Hubby ate most of them. Between the gorgeous yellows and the huge red, yesterday's box did make me wish I were a tomato lover.
Last night's dinner turned out to be easy after all. I cut up cucumber and tomatoes from the box and put them out with extra-virgin olive oil, sea salt and chèvre. It was beautiful. Rainy, warm summer days yield glorious produce...even if I choose to fill up with peanut butter toast in lieu of tomatoes after the kids go to bed.
