Freezing Tomatoes
It's tomato season...I've had a wonderful harvest and am thrilled with the results, the only thing is that I cannot keep up with them. Now that we have had our first rain, I heard that we should quickly pick all our tomatoes as to save them from getting blight.
I was chatting to Lovella about my abundance in fruit and she asked me what I did with them all?
I said, "You just wash them, throw them in a bag and freeze them." What? She did not believe me. I said, "I've been doing that for years, and then in the middle of winter when I have time I use the frozen tomatoes to make my fresh chilli, salsa, soup, or spaghetti sauce."
"You need to post that." says Lovella. That's a great idea.
It's funny how sometimes the simple techniques that we use, need to still be shared with our wonderful readers.

Another kitchen gadget....
I entered Elsie's kitchen, (SIL) and saw these fresh peaches sitting on her counter. Then my eyes turned towards this peculiar kitchen gadget.
"What's this I asked?"
She said, "You don't have this in your kitchen?"

She said, "You don't have this in your kitchen?"
"Take one home right now...I have two of these."
While making my salsa today...my daughter not only enjoyed this gadget, but noticed how it poured so simply into the jars. No more dripping syrup on my jars and towels.
