Ripe Living after 50: The Juicy Tomatoes Guide

In their juicy years are Jane Fonda, Judy Collins, and Isabel Allende. A Midwest banker and Boston professor, a therapist who became a Mexican inn-keeper, and an empty nester who took up Contra dancing are also among those enjoying their lushness. Author Susan Swartz refers to this new model of the fifty-plus woman as a Juicy Tomato, one who truly embraces life to the fullest. The previous generation of women fought for career opportunities, guilt-free sex, and the right to have a voice in all matters. Now, they are determined to make the second half of life just as revolutionary as the first.

Juicy tomatoes recognize that experience is a valuable asset, not a hindrance, and that wisdom and power are more appealing than a flat stomach. They don't apologize for their age, but instead embrace their vitality and intelligence. While there may be regrets, losses, and wrinkles, juicy tomatoes do not dwell on the past. They continue to break barriers and redefine what it means to age gracefully.
