Tomato Madness

In a fit of unbridled optimism I bought 3 bushels of canning tomatoes at the Clearspring Produce Auction on Tuesday.  A day and a half later the tally was:

  • 14 pints whole tomatoes
  • 38 pints sauce
  • 7 quarts juice
  • 1 quart paste (frozen in ice cube trays)

I have them all lined up on the counter (except the frozen paste, of course) and am admiring them.

And I’m also deferring all the trips to the basement to put them away.
