Eat Those Tomatoes

The tomato crop is in and we are having tomatoes as often as we can. They don’t have a great shelf life. Our best solution has been BLTs each day. That along with a nice meal of pasta cruda has gone a long way to using the tomatoes. I also have a little bowl full of bush tomatoes that can be snaked on any time one passes the bowl.

We still lose a tomato or 2 each day just because they go bad.

Kitty Update: Sunday night after we returned no cats showed up. With the dry weather the annual arrival of ants feeding on the cat food was also going on. The ants were thick enough to make it uncomfortable to stand because they crawl up your leg. When I’m here I manage the ants so that was one of my first tasks.

On Mon night Buzz showed up. Tuesday found only Marmalade. Wednesday there were no kitties. Tonight Buzz and Marmalade showed. Meredith and Velcro are still no-shows.
