The Trickle Before the Flood

Yesterday, I made a tomato salad for lunch. This morning, I had a tomato with my egg. And before you know it, the harvesting will be in full swing and the canner won't be put away for months.

Brace yourselves. The Tomato Crazy is a'comin'.

    This month's Bon Appetit has a recipe for a tomato tarte tatin. Might be worth looking into...

    Please try Sweetbird's tomato tarte. Then show us photos. Because we live vicariously though you, you know.

    woooooooooo! It's tomato glut time!

    I am, at this very moment, preparing for my first canning session with the tomatoes.

    I've already done 4 pints of salsa verde and 12 pints of pickles and now it's time for the big dogs.

    Though I've yet to pick a 2 pounder. Closest I got today was a 1 lb 6 5/8 ouncer.

    Fun times. Ready the canner!
