Homegrown Tomatoes

Cherokee Purple - I grew from seed, amazing - isn't it.  I keep thinking of the song by Guy Clark - Homegrown Tomatoes. 
 
...what'd life be without homegrown tomatoes
only two things that money can't buy
that's true love and homegrown tomatoes...
Guy Clark
 
Also, a Cherokee Purple - but a Heart Cherokee Purple.
 
...love has no mind
it can't spell unkind
it's never seen a heart shaped like a valentine...
John Prine
 
...love has no mind
it can't spell unkind
it's never seen a heart shaped like a tomato
a homegrown tomato...
homegrown tomatoes
nothin' is finer that Clark and Prine
and homegrown tomatoes
yours truly
