Red Ripe Tomatoes

Most years Jimmy’s tomatoes begin to ripen in early July.
His plants are tall, exposed to less than a half day of sun, grown
in the blackest compost and are visible from the shore of the Northridge.

I have to confess, I ate them for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I ate more than
my share and I hoped no one noticed. For me, the last
tomato is almost as bad as the shortest day.
