Why are my hands making yellow soap?

Tomatoes, Tomatoes, Tomatoes..They just keep coming! Everything else has given up the ghost but we still have tomatoes! We are eating tomatoes at every meal, "have some tomatoes on your toast"!! I love tomatoes but would like to have some nice fresh vine ripened tomatoes in January!! Tomatoes out of your garden are plump, full of juices, red, but not firm. the tomatoes you get at the grosser are picked while still green and hard, when ripened they remain firm and turn red but are missing the juice of a homegrown one. Oh well you get what you can, my Great grandfather never has a "fresh" tomato in January, or for that matter a fresh head of lettuce. Progress It always cost something!
