July 17, 2012 -- more tomatoes (then blackberry lily)

I was washing tomatoes this morning and they looked so pretty on the counter I decided to move some to the windowsill with yesterday's basil. I just love the way the green calyxes stay attached to these old-fashioned tomatoes!

Then I added two short stems of blackberry lily flowers to the mix. Most blackberry lilies have orange flowers, but this variety has yellow flowers. The flowers bloom on nice, tall stems, and I sort of hated to shorten them this much, but I did.

I like this photo because it looks so summery out the window.
