And I have PLENTY of San Marzano and Marinara tomatoes for another batch of sauce. That will be simmering, by this time tomorrow.
This has been a really good tomato year. Now I wish I'd been more adventurous. Peppers are so so but there's enough. I'm really looking forward to this Winter's batches of Chili, Curry, Stew and lovely pasta dinners.

Seriously, good on you. There's nothing like that cold, stormy day, wondering about what to make for dinner while knowing the answer is on a shelf or in the freezer.
I don't think it will be a good year for us...maybe it's been too hot, dunno.
