More tomatoes

Nora Bingaman remembers being 10 or 12 in the 1950s and living in Hood River, Oregon.

“I used to come home from school, grab the salt shaker and head to the backyard. I would pick a big, red, ripe, sometimes warm tomato from the vine, brush off the dust and eat it right there in the garden. Sometimes eating another one. I had to bend over a bit to keep from dripping onto my school clothes.”
