1. Slice thinly and serve with gaucamole. Roll them to like a taco to create good scooping action. I did this for a dinner party and people actually ate them. Not all of them, but more than I expected.
2. Make art projects. I thought about trying to play with them like Mr. Potato heads, but didn't have body parts. So a candle holder/centerpiece was born.
3. Give them away. Again, I was surprised by how many people agreed to take one home. And the men had fun joking and posing with them. One guy really wanted to grill them, but I didn't realize his genuine interest until I had given them all away to other people. Two weeks and I'll have more to bring to his house.
And then I picked the first colored tomato on the gigantic plant that was/is six feet tall (just permanently leaning now). And I'll be damned, but it looks PINK! Here are four different fruit from four different plants (I bought a rainbow six-pack; the other two kinds haven't ripened yet so are still a mystery.) The orange one is by far the sweetest. The pink and red probably could have used more time to ripen... Slightly green still, not as sweet.
