Tomatoes

I saw the tomatoes a friend from Minnesota grew in his garden one year – a magnificent group of heirlooms and beefsteaks of immense size and spectacular quality. I asked what he thought and he said it was ok. Not too bad.

A friend from New Orleans also gardens, albeit a bit less successfully. He had three small tomatoes – mostly a bit green. He noted a small one that was turning red and was immensely proud – We’ll be eating well tonight he said!

Why I left Minnesota and love New Orleans.
