Woe, oh woe

Byerly's has failed me. They had no yellow tomatoes. None. Not even bad ones.

Alack. With the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.

What's worse, it's not even for my recipe. Poor timprov, betrayed by Byerly's.

As if to mollify me, the dough for the rosemary buns was as well-behaved as I've ever seen it, smooth and elastic about a minute into the kneading. But I will not be mollified.

Wailie wailie.

In most recipes I've seen, plum or cherry tomatoes are listed as a substitute for yellow tomatoes. (Yellow tomatoes are chosen for lesser acidity, no?)

But what do I know? I don't like tomatoes at all, period, end of story.

In this case, the size of the tomatoes was also a factor. But we may only make one kind of salmon instead of two. Depends on how energetic various beings are feeling.

In this particular recipe, they're primarily a garnish. So the yellowness is important, and not having them isn't a terribly big deal.

Unfortunately I got my butt kicked by a bat last night, and am probably not up to cooking anyway.
