what is everyone’s opinion on tomatoes?

Sinclair -- doesn't care for them since they spoil easily.

Don -- Likes how sweet they are

Rodya -- Tried stir fried tomatoes and eggs once (which is real) and immediately got addicted.

Heathcliff -- Enjoys a Good BLT now and then but doesn't go out of they're way for them

Faust -- Doesn't eat them since there are "more efficient methods of gaining the appropriate daily amount of vitamins and nutrients".

Gregor -- Tried Tomato flavored cigarette's once on a whim and immediately swore off tomatoes then and there.

Ishmael -- doesn't eat them cause they're so expensive and she can't turn off her inner accountant.

Julia -- Isodora: "Excuse me, she asked for no Tomatoes!"

Michael -- *takes a bite out of a tomato like an apple*

Dian Wei -- is the one that got Rodya hooked on stir fried tomatoes and eggs

Wilkanów Dwór ( Wölfelsdorf )

„Wielka woda”

W okolicy mieszkał jasnowidz Filipek, który potrafił czytać w myślach. Przed śmiercią powiedział kiedyś ludziom ze wsi, że niedługo Wilkanów zostanie zniszczony przez powódź. Ludzie nie chcieli w to wierzyć, gdyż jak mogło zalać wioskę, a nawet gdyby to przecież płynąca przez Wilkanów Wilczka jest małą rzeczką, a raczej potokiem i żadnej krzywdy mieszkańcom nie jest w stanie wyrządzić. Pytali więc, kiedy nadejdzie katastrofa, ale Filipek nie chciał powiedzieć. Dopiero po którejś prośbie z rzędu odrzekł: „Gdy będą trzy kosy (siódemki w dacie)”. I rzeczywiście w nocy z 7 na 8 lipca Wilczka potężnie i niespodziewanie wezbrała do takich rozmiarów, że zniszczyła doszczętnie większość domów Wilkanowa. I rok 1997 – czas wielkiej wody można przyjąć za „gwóźdź do trumny” tego kompleksu dworskiego. Należał on do licznych,znamienitych rodów. Od drugiej połowy XVII w. do 1945 r. rezydowało tu rodzina von Althan. I tu warto zapamiętać dwa nazwiska. Jedno to właśnie von Althan, a przede wszystkim Michael Wenzel von Althann – austriacki arystokrata, właściciel dóbr ziemskich w południowej części hrabstwa kłodzkiego, cesarski ambasador, tajny radca dworu i komendant twierdzy kłodzkiej. Althannowie mieli swoje siedziby w Austrii, Czechach, na Morawach, w hrabstwie kłodzkim i na Węgrzech. Byli jedną z najważniejszych rodzin w całej monarchii. A drugie nazwisko to Jacob Carove – włoski architekt doby baroku. Do jego głównych prac należą m.in. budowa pałacu w Korytowie, przebudowa twierdzy kłodzkiej oraz barokizacja siedzib rodu Althannów:zamku w Międzylesiu; kościoły w Gorzanowie, Starej Łomnicy i w Nowej Wsi, o którym już pisałem. I to co nas w tym momencie najbardziej interesuje przebudowa w Wilkanowie (1681-86). Dwór wyszedł bez szwanku drugowojenną zawieruchę. Jak zazwyczaj w takich przypadkach trafił pod PGR i się zaczęło. Posiadłość powoli zmieniała się w ruinę. W 1970 r. budynek został opuszczony, W latach 80. i 90. XX w. w obiekcie prowadzono remont, próbując przeznaczyć go na hotel. W 1991 r. gmina wystawiła go na sprzedaż. Powódź 1997 r. przyniosła poważne uszkodzenia murów i runięcie części ścian. Pałac chyli się obecnie ku ruinie.

Warto jeszcze wspomnieć, że założenie rezydencjonalne w Wilkanowie zachwycało swymi ogrodami, znanymi dziś głównie z dawnych rycin. Uprawiano tu m.in. ananasy, aloes, kawę i cytryny.
