Submerge the tomatoes in boiling water for 20 to 30 seconds, until the skins wrinkle and split. Remove them to the ice water. Depending on how many tomatoes you are processing, you may need several changes of ice water, as the hot tomatoes will quickly melt the ice.
To celebrate the painting and its message of hope and change, International Tennis Day was started in 2014 as a world-wide event to take place annually on June 20th.
The Tennis Court Oath kick-started the French Revolution. It was literally an oath sworn in a tennis court. Due to the dominance the nobility/clergy had over the Third Estate, The Third Estate established the National Assembly on June 17, 1789. Three days later, on the 20th, the National Assembly was locked out of their usual meeting place. So, they congregated to a near by tennis court on Versailles street. I find this event significant because The Third Estate was willing to take up the responsibility of having a say in the government in order to recieve the rights they deserve.
