Tomatoes And Cucumbers

I love the culinary marriage of tomatoes and cucumbers.

Especially when you slice them; sprinkle a bit of oregano and grated Romano cheese over them; then finish it off with a heavy drizzle of olive oil.

TO. DIE. FOR.

And after I’m done eating the tomatoes and cucumbers, I like to take some nice Italian bread and dip it into the remaining olive oil on the plate and then gobble it up.

It's almost a 'spiritual' experience for me because the whole time I'm eating this, I'm saying, "Oh my god...oh my god...oh my god...I'm ready to come to heaven!"

I don’t why I’m telling you this other than I just found two photographs in one of my computer files that were taken last June, when I got together with my three east coast blogging buddies (Meleah, Valerie, and Kathy) in Phillly. Part of our city get-together included going to the Reading Terminal for lunch. The Reading Terminal is a wonderlust of culinary treats. You can find most any kind of ethnic food to eat, from Mediterranean to Soul food. The Terminal also offers fresh meats, fish, baked goods, flowers, and produce.

After eating our lunch, the girls and I took a walk through the terminal. Meleah and I stopped by one of the produce stands to check out the various fruits and veggies, and then took photographs of ourselves, while giggling like two delvish little kids.

Now if you know anything about Meleah and me, we are probably the two most “too much information” bloggers on the Internet. She and I jokingly call each other the Queen and King of TMI because we hold little reservation about sharing too much. Our lives are pretty much an open book when it comes to sharing stuff about ‘ourselves’ on our blogs.

Some may think, you share too much. Yet, Meleah and I feel that how we are on our blogs is exactly how we are offline.

What you see and read on our blogs is what you would most likely witness if you interacted with us in person.

We share our personal life ups and downs, our light and dark, and also our spontaneous and sometimes crazy off-color sense of humor.

So, without further ado, I give you….Meleah and Ron, sharing their tomatoes and cucumber in public.

Produce never looked so good.

Or so BIG.
