Tomato salad with garlic

I got married 2 weeks ago, and today my husband Marc and I got back from our honeymoon in southern Spain. While we were away I decided I would like to try writing a blog about food that I like cooking and eating, and that I am interested in trying.  This will be a purely personal indulgence and, I think, a welcome distraction from busy working life in a big city.  I don't know how long it will last; I hope you enjoy reading. 

I adore tomatoes - so it seems appropriate that my first posting is about a very simple, mouth-wateringly good, tomato salad, made tonight by Marc.  This was an attempt to recreate the most delicious dish we ate on holiday - a plateful of sliced tomatoes liberally sprinkled with tasty virgin olive oil, with plenty of chopped garlic and salt (if the garlic and salt are squashed together with a spoon before being spread over the tomatoes, it tastes especially good).  We ate it so quickly that I forgot to take a photo.

Until next time
