Waiting to Ripen

Lots of big gorgeous healthy tomatoes, but nothing's red yet. I'm trying to keep the plants in the sun during the day to encourage the ripening process.

The living metaphor: I can buy tomatoes, but growing them and tending them and waiting for them does make them taste so much sweeter.
