Our first tomato

Today was the day our first homegrown tomato was ripe enough to be eaten.

I proudly brought it into the house and set it down on the kitchen worktop.

"Look at that." I said to the wife.
"It's not very big." she replied.
"I know, but it is ripe."
"There's four of us, we wont get much each."
"There's lots more that will be ready soon."

I sliced the tomato into quarters and gave the kids a peice each, then the wife and myself had our peices.

"Was it alright." I asked.
"Mmm, a bit like lovemaking, all that expectation and over in seconds." she said.

Cheeky cow!
