A pint of Tomatoes to anyone who can guess how many tomatoes I now have!
Ha Ha Ha.... Anything to use up some of these tomatoes before they go bad.
We've been eating tomatoes with breakfast, lunch and dinner. It's AWESOME that I have a son who loves to eat tomatoes raw. I also see more tomato sauce in my future. Maybe I need to start experimenting in making ketchup.

| under all those veggies are more tomatoes! |
Corn, carrots, beet, squash, green peppers, green beans, dill, tomatoes, potatoes
From Wholesale: Nothing! My box was totally full of fresh local produce!
I've learned, that with veggies this fresh, they stay fresh longer than most grocery store vegetables. However, fresh corn is better used sooner than later. If I wait a week to eat the corn, it dries out ( I leave it out, not in the refrigerator.) The pregnant squirrel in my yard loves me right now due to the corn I leave out for them!
My favorite way to prepare fresh sweet corn: shuck and clean the corn, then put the ears on a plate or other microwave friendly dish. Microwave them for 1 minute per ear of corn. I usually only cook 1-2-3 ears at a time. This leaves them slightly under cooked, so they are still plump and juicy, but piping hot.
I am definitely building up a freezer stash of carrots for carrot soup this winter!
