Oooh, fresh home grown tomatoes. The flavour is out of this world. We never grew them even when we had a house as we were always away on vacation when they ripened. Wish I lived near you.
After a few years of trying to grow them – too hot- too wet – not hot enough – and then worst of all the animals taking a bite out of them and leaving them to rot, I gave up and decided to go to the market. Probably for the best as I could spend my summer eating tomato sandwiches.
