not just any tomato





a ripe zebra tomato
I think this is called a Zebra tomato and it is ready to eat.  Isn't it beautiful.  I was reading a book a couple of days ago and they mentioned a purple cauliflower.  Now I had never heard of that before and did actually wonder if it was an actual vegetable or a bit of a story line.  Then I went into work on Monday and there was a basket of these wonderous tomatos free to a good home.  I looked them up on the internet and found a whole family of different tomatos including black ones.   There is also purple spinach and the purple cauliflower.  It makes my vegie garden look dull.  I am so going to plant some green and maybe some purple tomatos next year.
