Tomato Flowers

It's been a while since I've had a good home grown tomato.  These grew from seeds and are a smaller variety so they should produce pretty quickly.  They've shot up in the last week.  I wasn't sure they were taking hold at first.  Last Thursday though I noticed these little flowers growing and hope sprung anew.

Again once the sunflower is gone it'll have more room and may be getting much bigger.

My wife doesn't much care for raw tomatoes but cooked are fine.  I find this isn't so great for the varietal flavor of the tomato and loses something.

If you like tomatoes raw or cooked, what's your favorite variety.  The usuals are plum, cherry, and hothouse but the beefsteak and brandywine can also be found occasionally, especially at more specialty grocery stores like Central Market.
