Hiya Mamajack!
I would have known you were a limabean, cornbread, tomato lover, even if you hadn't told me. Me too!! But tell me MJ, you don't put sugar in your cornbread, do you??
I don't know about the tomatoes your neighbor has, but chances are they might be. Mom had some tiny tomatoes that reseeded, they were always there and in the same spot every year when I was growing up. Sometimes she thinned them out a little, but mostly they just grew wild and tangled. She called them 'tommy toes'. When grape tomatoes started appearing in the groceries a few years ago, I called them 'tommy toes' too.
