um, maybe the tomato sans the bread? :p
bought fresh tomatoes this morning at Farmer's Market. No mayo will ever touch them, just some salt and pepper. ;)
Swap out the mayo for hummus and I'm with you. Yum!

Best peach I ever had in my life was during that trip, too. Again, softball sized, and oh-so juicy and sweet.
I also love tomato sandwiches with mayo. Tastes like summer. I don't grow my own anymore, but I get beautiful tomatoes from a farmer who sets up a stand on the side of the road, with a little old lady and her young great grand daughter working. Buying my veggies from them makes me happy. It's like going back in time.
It reminds me of what we lived on at the beach.Quote:

Hold the mayo.
As for sweet corn, it's grow your own or nuthin' (and mine's ready for dinner tonight :D). The sugars start turning into starch the minute it's picked.
My dad used to eat them with mayo too. I'll take them that way or with just S&P. Thank goodness for foods from South America! I wouldn't want to live with out really nice 'maters, 'taters and chilis!
No, though a BLT is pretty good too.Quote:

OMG how can you not love hummus?
Chickpea, fava, black bean, white bean, you really don't like any kind?
What a deprived life you must have! :p
