Tomato Sandwiches.

Sometimes the best things are the simple ones. For instance, tomato sandwiches.

In my mind they’re equated with my grandparents. I always spent summers with them as a kid. Using days to the fullest running around their huge yard, helping my grandmother hang laundry on lines outside, and assisting my grandfather in the garden.

Ah yes, the garden. We’d pick bell peppers, then sit on the back porch with nothing more than his pocket knife and a shaker of salt. The tomatoes were lucky to make it into the kitchen, where they’d be sliced thick and laid out on bread that had been toasted and slathered with mayonnaise and salt and pepper. Like I said… the simple things.
