My husband bought me an indoor light, so we are going to try our luck with growing tomatoes this winter. This is our first attempt at this, so anyone have any advice, or pointers?

Make sure that the light is no higher then 2" above the plants or you will get long stringy stalks and the plant won't bush out and set fruit.

Red Robbin tomatoes are a good option for indoors since they tend to do well in low light conditions. They are also a good container variety.
