Tomatoes! They are everywhere! But I have been busy preparing them for winter time consumption. I made a spaghetti sauce last night, using the yellow Russian heirloom tomatoes. This morning I am making a tomato sauce with the Japanese Momotaro "pinks"; boiling them down after peeling and seeding them. I also freeze them and have a good supply already.

Tip: Trader Joe has perfectly chopped yellow onions in a bag for sale. Very handy. But double bag them in your refrigerator. Also, check out the vegetable department in your supermarket for refrigerated, peeled garlic in plastic jars. Reasonable, and so easy to grab a few when you're motivated to enjoy a touch of garlic.
