It has been ok recently for tomatoes here in montreal, but the season started so late this year that the plants didn’t have much time to grow. I took a picture of my white (yellow) currant tomato with a yellow cherry tomato, and a penny for scale.
Hope it is visible to all

We’re in the peak of tomato season here in New York. And what a brief window it is — by the end of October, they’ll be gone till next year.

The currant tomatoes are even smaller and even more candy-like. I’ll post pictures of them and send the link

Candace,

I bought some of these tomatoes. Others were given by a friend growing them. I’ve eaten cherry yellow tomatoes before though. Not sure if it’s the same. You can eat them like candy

This year has been TERRIBLE for tomatoes, the planting season was pushed back so far and now it’s getting cold again. This year I planted white currant tomatoes. Has anyone else ever heard of them? Although they ended up being yellow, not white, they’re fantastic. Tiny, sweet, vibrant, and plentiful. They’re about the size of a very large blueberry. Do you know what varieties are in that gorgeous photo? Are they grown by you or bought by you?

Hi Bea, I’ve recently discovered your beautiful website and it already feels like home!

I’m wondering if you or your readers could suggest a few essential items for an aspiring weekend baker/cook on a Masters student budget – which is pretty modest – who has just moved to Milan. Some questions are – is a sifter really important? Can a hand held mixer replace a stand mixer? What size baking pans should I invest in first?

Thank you for your daily inspiration and a great day to everyone!

Last year was not a good tomato year for me, but this year is fabulous. I have so many delicious ripe tomatoes right now. This is the only time of year that I eat them fresh. I love the photo.
