Ooof, Mo! What a beautiful and raw piece. Took my breath! She'll be back, in every moment you need her most! Better keep those tomatoes stocked! Do love one with salt, and sometimes, we need to sprinkle one with a little sugar now and again! Delicious inspiration and a journey of self. 🍅✍🏼

Many blessings and MUCH LOVE,

~Wendy💜

She’s not really gone, Mo—she’ll bring the fruits of that distant summer back for you when you are sitting alone, when you are hungry and there is nothing in the fridge.

I look forward to meeting her over a bowl of fruits again, and again! ❤️

I love tomatoes with salt too but now I am on a no salt diet! I would eat them with salt, or garlic salt pepper, minced garlic and minced onion, Italian seasoning and olive oil and of course, crusty Italian bread! My brother had a garden in my back yard full of Roma, Cherry and American tomatoes but he gave up his garden a few years ago. He was over 80 and couldn't do it anymore! He also grew hot peppers, lettuce and other veggies.
