When I stopped at the small lot farmstead yesterday, they were offering large green tomatoes--free. Some woman asked if I cooked green tomatoes. I said, no, but if she took some and put them in a bowl in the kitchen they would ripen. She didn't know this...

FINALLY, rainstorm!!! Cooler and we might get our first frost on the average frost date, Oct 22nd. I may throw a moving blanket on top of the tomato/pepper pot by the house to give it one more week.
