One of my traditions is to eat the first tomato while still in the garden. That way I know it is fresh!

I was going to mention Carol's post about her First Tomato ceremony! If you missed it, here's the location:

We also get rather ceremonious about the first tomato, cutting it into two very equal parts, which is hard if the first one is a cherry style. First pepper usually ends up in peppers'n'eggs.

Pam, I didn't know you could just eat asparagus like that - thought it had to be cooked. Duh. Any blueberry cobbler would be a reason to rejoice.

Carol and Annie: Too hilarious, I didn't even think of bringing my first spear into the house on a satin pillow. Silly me, my approach is pretty barbaric, isn't it?? (And yes Annie - you can eat them raw!).

Pam... I did wonder how you found that post on my "tomato ritual" from last summer. Thanks for the comment on it. (And, thanks, Annie for remembering it.)

You could always bring in the next set of spears on a satin pillow.
