Tomato Egg Drop Soup with Meatballs

Other than carrots, another of my favourite is tomatoes. When my mouth is itchy, wanna munch on something, i will open my fridge & pop a few cherry tomatoes into my mouth.
As for big lovely tomatoes,i love to suck the seeds from the sacs.Its sooo....yummy, jelly-like & sourish....hmm...yummy.

Still remembers that when i was a child, whenever mum's preparing ingredients to cook sweet & sour fish,i will stand next to her, begging for few slices of tomatoes. haha....so cute rite? keke....

I had a sudden craving for a sourish soup & the 1st ingredients that comes to my mind is my favourite. In fact, this is the 1st time i cook soup with tomatoes. Normally i would eat them raw as i'm afraid that the tomatoes will lose their vitamins. But aniway, no matter wat, everything will be glupped rite down into mi & Adam's tummy :-P
