Grape tomatoes galore...

So, I was trying to figure out how to use all of the grape tomatoes I've grown so far and found this wonderful Cooking Light recipe which was pretty good.

2 c. grape tomatoes- halved

2/3c.fat-free, less sodium chicken broth

6 tbsp. crumbled garlic and herb flavored goat cheese

1/3 c. chopped fresh basil

1/4 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

While pasta cooks, heat oil in a large nonstick skillet-high/med heat.

Add, garlic and saute for 30 seconds. Then add tomatoes and cook for about 2 minutes. Add broth and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and add cheese, basil, salt and pepper to pasta stir until well blended. Add tomato mixture to pasta mixture tossing gently. Yields 4 servings.

What to do with grape tomatoes

I started a small container garden on my back deck not that long ago with mostly herbs and tomatoes planted. And this is the first time I've ever planted grape tomatoes. This particular tomato has turned out to be the best yet! I've also planted heirloom and plum tomatoes. The grape tomatoes are doing wonderfully in a large container and I've got an abundance of them to use every day so far.
Here are a few pictures of them. Recipe to come...

Crochet yet again.

I'm not sure why I'm fascinated with all things crocheted. Perhaps it's because I keep seeing it everywhere these days. Now, I found a crocheted rubber bowl on Gretel Home's website. Who thought such a practical thing could be so beautiful.
