If I plant ...wow, I'm so jealous if your tomatoes! If I plant any, the local squirrels eat them all. :( Yours are totally beautiful, and would certainly win any tomato beauty contest I hosted. For preservation, I would definitely do tomato sauce, but then I'm not that into dried tomatoes. Either way, you win tomatoes!Eileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14952359002744629140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-159457311435737252.post-79182682802473811842008-08-10T11:50:00.000-04:002008-08-10T11:50:00.000-04:00And don't throw away the green ones at the end of ...And don't throw away the green ones at the end of the season: make a <A HREF="http://wishiwerebaking.blogspot.com/2006/10/mince-uh-meat_29.html" REL="nofollow">fruit mince</A>!David T.

They are ...Tomatoes: Dry them, dry them, <B>dry them!</B> They are absolutely fabulous dried, snipped over a salad during the depths of winter, and you can rehydrate them to make a wonderful sauce, or you can include them in soups - so many uses, and much easier to store than the canned ones! You can vacuum-seal them in canning jars if you have that many, and it'll keep them from any chance of mold infection, but dry them to a crisp and they'll keep just fine!David T.

Hopefully you planted too many herbs as well. <BR/><BR/>The first year I had my own house I overplanted but for me it was tons of lettuce. I learned to really like lettuce flowers. There was so much I couldn't harvest it before it went to seed.Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00442002530901345199noreply@blogger.com
