- Here’s the last of the fall tomatoes. These were picked green and then ripened in the box for about 3 weeks. The tomatoes are much sweeter in the fall not sure why. You can actually wrap them in newspaper and they will keep a few months in a cold area.
Then into the boiling water
Then into the food mill( the best invention ever).
Then into the pot as sauce.

I made a tomato soup out of this batch and it was yummy. Today, was the set up for the library book sale. Only 4 of us showed up. We got the books out on the tables and the raffle items out too. I brought 2 frozen zucchini bread for the bake sale. I’ll be there tomorrow for a few hours and that’s it.
3. I painted the open shelves yesterday(first coat) and then today after the books sale set up went and got more paint at Home
I painted the open shelves yesterday(first coat) and then today after the books sale set up went and got more paint at Home depot. I’m just using the Behr ultra white high gloss. So tomorrow I can put back the dishes and cups.

Then I finished knitting my little pumpkin and my wool stuffing showed up from Amazon so I finished it and made a little stem. I have the second one ready to finish as well. I prefer felting wool for these projects but it was fun to re- learn knitting. I always need help remembering how to cast on.

Dinner is homemade pizza.
I am mad-jealous about the toms. I miss them so!
The sauce was sweet and quite yummy!
Hmmm, something’s going on here. I spent yesterday painting shelves in the kitchen while my wife B went to volunteer at the library book sale. We had pizza, too, but did take-out.
How funny!!! Our little FOL sale netted about $500. It’s an awful lot of work though!!
