I picked up another package of the little grape tomatoes I like. I didn't realize they were a product of Mexico ~ I thought they were grown more locally because they are usually so fresh tasting ~ and they taste like a real tomato!
One of the biggest things for me is the fact they are red all the way through ~ NO green icky jell and seeds here.
They are a bit more expensive than the other grape tomatoes but I don't mind spending $4.89 on a package if I can enjoy the flavor.
Today for lunch I made myself a tuna salad ~ so unlike HIS tuna salad. (He uses a package of tuna and a spoonful of Miracle Whip and that's it.) MY tuna salad has to have salad stuff in it ~ lots of chopped celery, a bit of chopped chives, hard cooked eggs and MW ~ it's what I was raised with.....Mom referred to it as mayonnaise so it was a shock to me when I grew up and found out it was 'Salad Dressing' and not 'Mayonnaise'......ah, but I digress.....
My plate got a small pile of shredded iceburg lettuce, halved grape tomatoes, seasoned with s&p, and all topped with a couple spoonfuls of my homemade tuna salad.
Normally I have it with Club Crackers ~ but someone finished off the box that was in the pantry and there were none to be found....
Oh, yeah, notice my 'new-to-me' Peppermate pepper grinder. I absolutely love it! Easy to adjust the grind size, can grind extra to use during cooking ~ easy to turn handle. No wonder I saw my man, Jacques, and my friend, Ina, using one in their kitchens!
