Varnishing A Table

I have a wooden table which has been sanded down to the bare wood. I want to varnish it, matt, with a surface that can withstand very hot dishes. Any suggestions, please ?

Grafted Tomatoes

Hello. How does one deal with these plants ? Do we pinch out the side-shoots or let them fan out ? Do they need a lot of feeding or less than ordinary tomato plants ?
