Happiness is to eat tomatoes right off the vine. If this was a contest, Matina won. Here is Matina is to the right and Norderås bush tomato to the left. Matina was the first of seven varieties to ripen, and this is the third Matina I’m enjoying. Norderås was second runner up, this being the first ripe one harvested. Now I’m hoping for some more sun, so maybe yellow submarine and black cherry will show me their true colors too.
