The garden at our house in town is mine and Son's garden, where we plant purple beans, eggplants, multi-colored carrots, asparagus, winter onions, and flowers.<br /><br />My kids love green tomato bread. Daughter wants me to freeze a couple so she can take it to school for her Christmastime birthday. Fits in very nicely with the school's wellness policy-healthy snacks and all. Right now I have an 8 foot counter full of tomatoes in a technicolor array of limey green, watermelon, and smoldering red. Hubby likes tomato/veggie juice, as well as "Norwegian" salsa-not too hot. There is a cabinet full of Italian and regular tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, stewed tomatoes...<br /><br />Hubby's uncle has a chokecherry bush on steroids in his backyard, so I think I have supplied half of my co-workers with chokecherry jelly and syrup. I NEVER liked helping with the canning when I was a kid, so I know my mom is up in Heaven, with her jaw on the floor, as she watches me can all this!ValiMornoreply@blogger.com
