Summer in the City

Tomatoes?  In the winter?

Yes, and not only that.  I, who would wonder just who could be keeping the food trucks in business during these frozen months, I waited in a food truck line for my choice of two tomato sandwiches and a soup or bean/tomato salad.  But it was for a good purpose!  100% of my $5 donation went to the Greater Boston Food Bank, and in return, Clover Food Lab provided lunch, and the first 100 of us went home with a cute box of yummy Cocktail tomatoes grown in Maine by Backyard Farms.

Sure, it wasn't the most organized event (it took me a while to realize that there were two different sandwich lines), and my fingers were quite frozen, but I got the warm fuzzies for participating in this charitable event and left with a satiated tummy.
