Some people we know have a bumper crop of tomatoes this summer. Other people we know, much closer to home, have but one tomato, a coy little thing, a tomato which is considering its options.
If you are part of the bumper-crop team, crying (in a somewhat disingenuous manner), "What can I do with all these tomatoes?" Here are a few suggestions.
1. Make tomato dolls. (Note: These dolls should not be passed down from generation to generation, nor sent overseas.)
2. Have a pocketful of tomatoes at the ready to lob at the foreheads of irritating people.
3. Make Bloody Mary's. Here's one recipe:
- Puree several pounds of fresh tomatoes with handfuls of celery, parsley or cilantro
- Force through sieve; retain the juice
- Add fresh lemon juice, hot sauce, pepper, salt
- Mix with vodka (1 part vodka to 3 parts juice is the recommended dose)
5. And traffic.
