tomatoes

Every year around this time, I start to run out of ways to use up all the tomatoes. Here’s a list of my current favorites:

1) tomato & pesto sandwich
2) tomato pie
3) tomato salad with green beans & black olives
4) pizza topping
5) salsa (always)
6) halve cherry tomatoes, chop green pepper & onions & sprinkle with oregano. Keep in the fridge ready to add to: pasta, omelets, salad, soup, quiche, or pizza

How do you use tomatoes?

geometrics and florals

I made some pillows for my bed.

I like how the geometric designs of the pillows contrast with the wild floral blanket.

getting quirky

I like to get quirky when I’m pairing fabrics together. It took me a little while to decide what to use with this beautiful red silk, but then I knew: a cotton drop cloth from the hardware store.I love how the rugged drop cloth fabric contrasts with the delicate silk.
