Tomatoes

Its that time of year. My tomatoes have been ripening in the kitchen for a few weeks now and I am busy canning and drying them. I know we will use them up throughout the winter but right now it all seems kind of overwhelming. I am grateful for our 5 gardens and we had over 37 tomato plants this year. Everything from Cherry tomatoes (great to dry and use in cooking) Roma's and even some beefsteak tomatoes. The house smells like tomatoes and I am dreaming of them at this point. LOL Today I will be starting some sauerkraut. I am NOT looking forward to how the house is going to smell over the next 8 weeks with that brewing!!
