There are a few more weeks while we can get the best tomatoes at the best possible prices. Today, I went to a farmers market and despite my mom's protests, I bought about 20 pounds of tomatoes. I processed them and scooped them into ziploc type bags. She likes them in the winter for cooking yet she did bot want me to do it for her.
I did not listen and I am glad. She now has lots of good quality tomato sauce nicely freezing. Now she is happy. I guess she thought I was too tired and just did not want me to bother.
I am done with errands. I would like to relax during the weekend and go back to Istanbul on Monday.
47 days to go till my big vacation! getting impatient and excited.
I need to go to a local You Pick farm and get tomatoes to can. I probably will not though because of Mom.

ReplyDeleteThat tomato sauce will be so good. Time goes so fast and before you know it, you'll be off on your trip. Have a good weekend!
She likes tomato soup very much. Those toatoes will be very handy in the winter.
DeleteTurkey spoiled me for tomatoes. After eating all that beautiful Turkish food I stopped buying the plastic crap you get locally. Sad isn't it, but good for you for freezing everything. Next year I SWEAR my garden will be FULL of them!
ReplyDeleteThis time of the year the tomatoes are really good. You are lucky to have a garden. I would love one.
