tomatoes

The tomatoes in my garden are ripening quickly all of the sudden...

and it's about time.

I just plant a small raised garden so never have enough of anything to can all at the same time.

When I have a dishpan full of tomatoes I skin them and put them into quart sized freezer bags. I love the taste of garden ripe tomatoes in pasta or chili recipes.

And I love serving up a big bowl of pasta in these bowls

 I happened upon in a dollar store a few years ago.

Aren't they great? Each one has as different picture of a chef on it.

 And only a dollar each! I wish I would have bought 4 more.

This goulash is always a favorite at our house. b
