No freezing weather yet! Amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having too many tomatoes is a good problem to have! We picked tomatoes today, and have at least this many tomatoes still remaining on the plants for later harvesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Slicing tomatoes and Roma tomatoes, plus green peppers, Anaheim peppers, jalapeno peppers, four late strawberries, and two varieties of carrots.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The tomatoes are so delicious! Yesterday I fixed this. It does need freshly picked tomatoes so grocery store tomatoes will not work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fresh tomato & basil pasta<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 to 6 ripe tomatoes, chopped\n5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil\n2 teaspoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed\n1\/3 cup basil leaves, stems removed, chopped\nSalt, to taste\nFreshly ground black pepper, to taste\n\n1 pound spaghetti, or linguine or fettuccine pasta\n\n1\/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Gather the ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Place tomatoes, olive oil, lemon juice, and fresh basil in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Mix gently and set aside to marinate. Then fix some pasta and drain when it is all cooked, and immediately stir in the marinated tomatoes with the hot pasta, and add the grated cheese (or skip the cheese  and add it to individual bowls). So easy! I had some cold today for lunch and it’s a totally delicious cold salad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I will need to make some sauce out of all the Roma tomatoes, and either freeze it or can it. I haven’t decided which to do. Or I could make some salsa. I have a lot of onions to harvest and way more peppers which will need to be taken care of soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had company a week ago and I got inspired to do some baking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I thought I was carried away with baking but since none of the above are left, evidently not. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ll need to bake some more things this week.  All the sweet rolls are gone from the freezer so I guess I’ll do those first.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
