Ten Reasons Why I Have a Love Affair With Tomatoes
Whether you view the tomato as a vegetable or a fruit – either way – they sure taste good and add that extra kick to a lot of popular dishes on a worldwide basis.
With a fascinating history, you'd never figure that the tomato is actually part of the nightshade family, where a few poisonous cousins exist. Interestingly, the lineage of the tomato is also connected to that of tobacco, eggplants, chili peppers, and the potato. Without tomatoes, some of the favorite edibles around the world would cease to survive. Overall, I find tomatoes a versatile vegetable, which shapes the many reasons why I celebrate their existence.
1) A Happy-Looking Vegetable
Tomatoes are colorful and not only come in the bright red variety, but also decorate dishes with orange, green, pink, purple, yellow, and even white selections. Some are multi-colored, while others display funky stripes. All in all, the tomato makes a rather attractive addition to a recipe that actually helps uplift a gloomy disposition.
2) Important Salad Ingredient
A salad isn’t complete without tomatoes, as there are many different selections to consider. Tomatoes and cucumbers with Italian dressing make a great accessory to any dinner, which is also fast and easy to prepare. Add cubed cheese to this side dish and you have a filling, speedy lunch for on the go.
3) Hamburger Helper
Sprinkle a little salt on sliced tomatoes and you have a refreshing treat. A juicy hamburger with all the fixings isn’t the same without a couple of slices, adding zip and matching perfectly with lettuce.
4) Please Pass the Ketchup!
Thanks to the tomato, the popular burger condiment of ketchup heightens the taste of freshly grilled items on a hot summer day. Will you please pass the ketchup for my hot dogs, French fries, Thousand Island dressing, sandwiches, and other fried foods?
5) Good Stuff for the Body
Red foods are known to supply the body with lycopene – a heart-healthy, powerful antioxidant proven to fight against cancer and other ailments. When you want to provide the body with the healthiest boost, seek out crushed-, tomato sauce- or paste products.
6) Fried Green Tomatoes
Fannie Flagg brought attention to this tasty treat when she published "Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Café." The novel was later turned into a comical drama starring Kathy Bates and Jessica Tandy, prompting curious thoughts regarding the actual taste of fried green tomatoes. FYI: They're delicious!
7) Easy to Grow
Sometimes the price of tomatoes is ridiculous, but with a little patience – you can generate your very own supply in a homemade garden. While the rabbits nibble at strawberries and corn becomes riddled with bird pecks – you'll always have a healthy crop of tomatoes to enjoy. This easy-to-grow vegetable becomes so plentiful; you'll have enough to share with family and friends.
Pizza, Pizza!
Without tomatoes, the magical blend of most of the four food groups wouldn’t come together in a neat pie slathered with tomato sauce. The added spices of rosemary, oregano, and other Italian selections bring the flavor of tomatoes to life in this rather vital component of pizza making.
9) A Taste of Italy
Joining pizza, the thousands of ways to prepare pasta, including heaping mounds of lasagna and the childhood favorite of spaghetti and meatballs isn’t the same if tomato sauce and tomatoes aren't available.
10) Mexican Delight
Nothing tempts the palate at a Mexican restaurant like the taste of fresh salsa with sturdy tomatoes that burst inside your mouth. Many other Mexican dishes rely on the use of tomatoes, whether included in a recipe or merely decorating the side of a plate.

Can I use leather dye on a leather hand bag?
I found a super nice bag but in the nastiest colour ever so was super cheap.
Can I use dark green or dark red leather dye on it? And do I just use a sponge or something for application?
This is the stuff Im thinking of using - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TANDY-LEATHERCRAFT-FIEBINGS-LEATHER-DYE-GREEN_W0QQitemZ200121353106QQihZ010QQcategoryZ28133QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1638Q2em118Q2el1247
Can I make it come out any darker with double application?
Mucho Tao.
Its sorta like a brown green vomit colour right now, good point about the stitching, I hadnt even thought of that. But it'll work though right?
This will depend on the type of leather you have.
A dye soaks into the leather itself and can only be used on absorbent (aniline style) leathers. If you sue it on a coated (pigmented) leather it will simply swirl about on the surface and come off onyour clothes. Generally speaking you cannot change the colour only enrich it on these type of leathers.
If you have a coated (finished/pigmented) leather then you need to use pigments to change the colour (colour change with these is possible) The critical thing here is the preparation and finishing as if there is any dirt or grease present the pigments will not stick anf fisnishing with good products is essential.
Hope this helps
Hardship and glory highlight BHM films
With Black History Month ending, many individuals take the time to honor the contributions made in order to bring more equality to the nation. Although, in some cases, we have a long way to go in order to reach full equality and for all wounds to be healed, but we have near-successfully strived to get this far.
Thanks for visiting!
