Default Strange Tomato Collection

I have come across some oddball tomato bric-a brac in flea markets and antique stores and I cannot seem to pass it up. Anyone else have any tomato stuff kicking around the house besides me

After several private conversations, I must insist on the reference to Frank Zappa: Call Any Vegetable - https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...76C74PkhTWWH_w

I have a large "tomato" painted bucket, a smaller double metal "tomato" hod/carrier, tomato earrings, soap, pasta bowls, apron and mugs. (and you really do not want to know how many yards of tomato themed fabric...) Alas, cannot seem to post photos now.

Okay I thought you had two of everything and then realized they were in front of a mirror.

I dont have anything in the house that has anything to do with a tomato.

My last fresh store bought tomatoes got cut up and put in a soup today.
