We have our 4 GA admission season tix. AW has a great seat about 1/2 way up at about the 45 yard line so someone should take him up on it. ;) :D The added benefit would be that you'd be (frighteningly) close to Ozzie. :)) =)) :ymdevil:

Hmm... what is the most effective way to go about seeding tomatoes? :ymblushing:

[thread hijack]
F/T/R- I always use Roma tomatoes (sometimes called "plum" tomatoes) as they are always easy to find and are closer to vine ripened than other varieties. Buying them two/three days in advance will ensure nicely ripened tomatoes.

To seed one you can either split it or, as I do, lop of the top just below the internal stem (the green part inside the tomato), then holding it over a bowl (or your sink) gently squeeze the tomato until the seeds and pulp begin to come out (sometimes, rolling it between thumb and forefingers, like screwing a cap, helps). If you want to get real aggressive you can jam your finger into the tomato but, better wear safety goggles as the contents of the tomato will exit rather... umm... vigorously. :D

Why hassle with all this mess? Because the seeds are unattractive, don't add flavor and can turn your dish bitter (not to mention they're
indigestible) and the pulp will dilute the flavor (it's mostly water).

After brunchgate I'm moving the above info to the recipe thread. That's too good to get lost.

The problem is that I would have to work on it in bits and pieces AFTER I do my homework, which isn't my preferred method.

You are smart to recognize and rely on the method that works best for you. I know you want this application to be a good reflection of who you are and to pave the way to be accepted.

I'm gonna have my camera with me this time. Last time I scouted out some future painting ideas along the Alley, plus I'm going to try to get near enough to the field to get some decent action shots. It would be nice to paint Duke not playing Duke.
