Nice tomatos...is there an e or not? Makes me want a tomato sandwich. Funny journaling.

Ah, now I get it! It used to be a cracker box, now it's tomato art. You are such a clever (and thrifty) artist!

Hey, remember Attack of the Killer Tomatoes? Baaaaaaad movie.

This is great--took me a minute to figure out it was the tomatoes talking--I looked at the words first (as usual), and thought, "oh my, this person's having a bad day" LOL!

Thanks for the kind words and the link! I'll be back later to look at all the wonderful artwork--gotta go make dinner now--boo.

I saw this yesterday, and didn't have time to comment, but I have had to come back now as...I've just eaten a cheese and tomato sandwich! I'm sure I heard tiny squeals! Anyway, this is another fab piece of art, your image transfers are great.

Great art, and what a great idea to recycle like this! And I want to tell you that I too (a couple of years ago) have written a story about a tomato. You make me want to share it :) ... hold on...

I just got back from looking through your blog and I read that post about you being "haunted" by having an idea and someone else having it - I have been feeling the same way! I thought it was amusing that I found your tomato story on your art, then I read your post about being haunted, I asked myself if I should even tell you that I had written one as well :) haha

Anyway, you create great art, and I'm glad to have found your site!
