oh CSA, I can't stay mad at you...

So fine, I was not too happy about getting a bazillion pork link sausages from our CSA this week. But, this was also the first week we got TOMATOES!!! Of all the produce we get from the farm, I think that we taste the difference the most with the tomatoes. They are so meaty and flavorful, it is really unbelievable. Within about 2 hours of unpacking them yesterday my boyfriend and I went through about half of them - my boyfriend ate an entire tomato in the form of a tomato and mayo sandwich, and I went with my favorite go-to tomato snack: cherry tomato caprese salad.

  1. Love love love tomato and mayo sandwiches. These look lovely am so jealous. I think I want to get a tomato plant for my balcony. Nothing tastes better than sun-warmed tomatoes.
    Also, AS had her baby today. She's gorgeous!

  2. Gorgeous salad! I absolutely love caprese too, especially with grape or cherry tomatoes like this. It's the definition of summer to me!
