tomato pickin'

we're finally overwhelmed with tomatoes! they don't look perfect (a byproduct of organic gardening i suppose) but they taste darn good. today Mayden and i picked 8 large tomatoes and a few dozen cherry tomatoes with plenty left on the vine to ripen. i will be distributing some to our neighbors tomorrow as i do not think we can eat these all before they go bad. so far my favorite way to consume these fine tomatoes is to rub some garlic on a slice of bread, add slice of tomato, sprinkle w/ mozzarella cheese and toast. yuuuum! any good tomato recipes out there? if we don't snack on all of the cherry tomatoes i'll be freezing them to make some spaghetti sauce this winter.
