I Say Tomato and You Say Tomato

Heres a short film (along with some photos) from the fabulous heirloom tomato tasting at Wild Boar Farms on Sunday. It was a great event, and the tomatoes were as delicious as advertised. After gorging on these just-picked beauties, the thought of eating conventional tomatoes seems ridiculous.

You just can’t fight Mother Nature. There are only a few months a year when you should eat fresh tomatoes. Sorry, thats just the way it is. But, the good news - this is one of them!

So, after watching this, figure out when the next local farmers market is, and get some real tomatoes. As far as ways to eat them - keep it simple - it doesnt get much better than olive oil, salt, maybe some fresh basil and cheese, on crunchy grilled bread. Enjoy!

The best chocolates you can afford for Mothers Day

I dont know about you, but I would far rather have a small box of high quality, gourmet chocolates than a huge box of standard chocs. This little For my Mum Pocket Selection is exactly the sort of thing I mean. Hotel Chocolat have created an irresistible selection especially for Mum to enjoy with her feet up! Its Mothers Day on Sunday 10th March, but you can click and collect from your nearest the Hotel Chocolat store.

There are eight delicious heart shaped chocolates in a cute little box, two of each flavour. My favourite was the Lemon Berry Tart, Ive had this before in the Valentine Heart I reviewed in February, and loved it then too. Its that combination of sharp lemon and creamy, sweet white chocolate. My husbands favourite was the Salted Praline, which was nicely salted, just enough to give a contrast. The Caramel Praline and Dark Mousse were also very good.

When you have sons you are lucky if they remember about Mothers Day at all, then they get girlfriends or wives and things definitely start to improve.

Here is a message to any young men (older men too!) out there:

"BUY YOUR MUM THE BEST CHOCOLATES YOU CAN AFFORD"

And the "For my Mum Pocket selection" is only £8.00, so there is no excuse!

I was provided with a "For my Mum Pocket Selection" for review, I was not paid for this review and all opinions are my own.
