Fresh, ripe tomatoes that taste like tomatoes? Smell like tomatoes?
You are sooooo lucky! My little Romas are growing, and I have hopes.
They seem to do as well here as anything. Early Girls just aren't quite
the same as Big Boys and we don't have a long enough growing season for
the Boys most years. I do have a peach tree that is in need of thinning
- we'll have to prop up branches this year. Freestone peaches, very
tasty! When they're ripe, the skins slip right off without parboiling.

Fresh tomatoes and Freestone peaches! Oh my, they sound delicious!
The ones in the stores are just not the same flavor.

In a good summer, we are in pig heaven here. ;-) We get peaches only
about every two or three years, though. A late frost after the tree
blooms ensures that there are none. Some people put old outdoor
Christmas tree lights in their fruit trees, and if there is a frost
warning, they turn them on. It works. It works so well that all the
old outdoor lights got bought up several years ago. It's partly my
fault, I told some people about it. I've heard there are good tomatoes
at the farmer's market - growers from California bring them up, nice and
fresh. I haven't gotten around to going yet.

Very true, darn it! I bought lovely large store tomatoes so
I'd have hamburger-sized slices for the picnic Saturday.
They were gorgeous, but might as well have been printed on
cardboard for all the taste they had.

I never keep tomatoes in the fridge. Even tasteless Euromatoes from
greenhouses by the square mile, all the same size to keep supermarkets
happy, develop a bit more flavour after a few ours in the sun.
