In medium saucepan, bring 1 quart water to a boil. Using knife, make an x on bottom of each tomato; immerse in boiling water 30 seconds. Peel and discard skin. Cut each tomato into quarters; discard seeds. Chop tomatoes; set aside. Prepare pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, in large skillet, saute shallot in butter until soft, about 2 minutes. Add asparagus and carrots, cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add half and half, peas and thyme. Bring to a boil; simmer until mixture reduces slightly, about 6 minutes. Add tomatoes, scallops and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until scallops turn opaque, 2-3 minutes. Drain pasta; toss with scallop mixture.
