Heirloom Tomato mountain


I've made more tomatoes today than I have in my entire life...or, at least, in one sitting. The platters are made by my good buddy, woodturner Thomas Saunders. The platter on the left is for a customer, and the one on the right I am listing.

    Your tomatoes are superb, Kiva!!
    And Tom's woodwork is fabulous - I just got two of his pieces, a platter and a bowl in birdseye maple, and I can't put them down - they're so tactile!

    Heirloom tomatoes? Wow.These tomatoes are beautiful, almost a pity biting into them. They should just be frozen in time as still life like what you are doing, Kiva :). Great job.

    You completely ok yet?

    Sorry, I've been on eBay and that's what came to mind when I saw your tomatoes. I'm running out of adjectives to describe your phenomenal work, Kiva!
