We used to call ourselves the Top Tomato Ladies because we had produced a tomato cookbook called “Ellynne’s Top Tomato Cookbook.” They were her recipes and my illustrations. Ellynne won the 2009 Washington Post Newspaper Top Tomato Recipe Contest for her Tomato Stack Salad which is featured in the cookbook. We both really like the looks and tastes of tomatoes and we even wear tomato colored clothes for our book signings. There are tomatoes featured on the wallpaper behind our web page and there are hidden tomatoes in the “Chesapeake Cats and the Easter Surprise” for children to discover as they look at the book.
