ok, so the new gourmet magazine came yesterday, and i sat outside after swimming laps to savor the pictures, articles, and recipes. alas, many articles about how to use tomatoes, herbs, etc- as i look at my deck plants- a cherry tomato, 2 basils, parsley, chives, oregano, marjarom (sp) and lemon thyme- a glory in being able to pop a cherry tomato or 2 in my mouth daily, and have little hope of ever having enough to actually make a recipe calling for said tomatos.........the aforementioned produce is actually a bumper crop by my standards- still alive by labor day. i did use some basil and lemon thyme and parsley in a marinated tomato (boughten) salad, with rice vinegar and olive oil- stephan has had multiple helpings........the magazine people will not be by anytime soon...........
