Summer colours on an autumn plate

It seems like the tomato plants prefer the cooler autumn days after a very hot summer during which they did not perform as well as in previous years.  I sprayed the plants with an Epsom salt solution that seems to agree with them.

They look healthier and happier and are producing delicious crops of multi-coloured tomatoes. The bright colours of the orange, yellow, black and green tomatoes make for summer coloured dishes on the cooler days of autumn.

The flavours of the tomatoes are varied and intense and I only have to add salt, pepper and some fresh basil to really make a tomato come to life. I can taste the individual colours of the tomatoes in the visually pleasing starter that brightens up lunch, under the brown and bare oak tree.
