Farm Fresh + Fancy

I recently picked up a set of vintage silver-plated flatware for a steal. The pattern, from 1936 by Wm. Rogers, is called Fascination. I like it because of the art deco design and I plan on using it as my every-day silverware.

My favorite thing about this particular set is it came with several serving pieces, including the one above which I was able to identify as a tomato server. It certainly makes farm fresh ‘maters feel a bit more fancy!

My friend Mollie posted a lovely tomato tart recipe on her blog today, but plain old tomato slices make me just as happy. How are you enjoying the season’s bounty?
