Only Outlaws Will Have Tomatoes
I’m sure my friend Lisa is happy, but the rest of us are bummed that tomatoes have been banned. (Lisa doesn’t like raw ‘maters.) I just can’t believe it. They are such a staple of my life. I’ve got a quartet of tomatoes-on-the-vine in my fridge, and I know they’re supposed [...]
