Excerpt from "The Sweet Tomato Story"
"One of my earliest memories of living at home with my family during my childhood is of us having a huge garden and growing Big Boy Jersey tomatoes. From these came fresh tomato sandwiches on Wonder Bread smeared with miracle whip & salt & pepper, Fresh made Spaghetti Sauce, sautéed Tomatoes & Zucchini and Tomato Gravy.
I love the creativity of cooking and of seeing someone taste and smell something I have made - I love to try different things and cooking is therapy for me.
Cooking is a way to share, to be creative and to spend time with people you love. It helps to nourish, heal and make you remember things and people from your past. It's the smell, the taste, the texture, it's Life. Enjoy it while it's here, just like a Jersey Sweet Tomato."
