Wash the tomatoes and dry them. Put them in a box and then put them into a cupboard or closet with some clean newspaper covering them. They will ripen. Check regularly and enjoy. If you get too many make some salsa! Fried green tomatoes are good as well. Christines last blog post..Lazy day...Lazy Lady

I'm sure you can Google up something for green tomatoes! They are quite good! Don't waste them! I didn't get a garden in this year, but I kind of look forward to having a big bunch of green tomatoes at the end of the season to eat. Cynthias last blog post..30 Day Challenge - Day 1

@Rita: Hi Rita – thanks for stopping by, and thank you for the kind words. Good luck on your journey – it’s well worth the effort!

@Cynthia: Hi there Cynthia! I’ve been wondering how you’ve been – seems like you and I have faced similar challenges writing-wise lately. Good to hear from you. I’ll swing by GarbageThatGoo as well.

@Christine: Hi Christine! We have a ton of green tomatoes in the garden right now – I think we’re going to have to pick them soon with freezes getting closer to our altitude. I am not sure what to do with unripe tomatoes – but I’m sure my wife knows. I went to the Farmer’s Market yesterday and we are still getting some good produce, but definitely slimmer pickings.

I only have a few fresh tomatoes from my garden left, just enough to make one last fantastic salad. The grocery store tomatoes just can not come close to the flavor of garden tomatoes! The rest John made into salsa. The farmer markets around here mostly have potatoes and carrots. So depressing....Bwa Haa...sob... Christines last blog post..November 19

My farmer's market just closed until next May sometime. Well, after the recent freeze, to be honest, there was not a lot of produce selection left. I'm not looking forward to winter... we get fog and don't see sun for sometimes 2-3 months in this valley. But, winter isn't here yet and it is a great time to do yardwork! I hate the daylight hours growing shorter though. Less time to be out enjoying the cool weather. OTOH... when the leaves start to fall, it sure makes a lot of work around here!

I'm so glad I found your blog! I'm just beginning the task of losing 40 lbs and trying to live a greener, healthier life! I'm choosing organic fruits and veggies, have a small garden, and try to get wild caught fish or free range meats whenever I can. I've also switched to spelt flour for baked goods. I'm just learning but it makes me feel so good! Ritas last blog post..It's a BEAUTIFUL Saturday!

@FBG: I agree on running/hot cocoa in the fall – it reminds me of playing football with my Dad in the fall. And great reminder on frozen vegetables. I typically try to eat fresh when possible, but good frozen vegetables really can make up some of the difference through the winter.

@Usman: Hi Usman – I’m glad you enjoyed the post. It is easy to write a post when it comes from the heart!

@MV: Thanks for the kind words – I will definitely check your post out.

@Dr. Hubbard: Thank you for the visit – and I agree on the benefits of reduced pollen. Pollen in the Pacific NW is a pretty big source of discomfort for many of us, including me.

@Bob: Hi Bob – I appreciate that you left a comment, and that you are enjoying the site. I think the site you are looking for is Chris Guillebeau’s The Art of Nonconformity (http://chrisguillebeau.com/3×5/). His goal is to visit every country in the world, and he is halfway there. He also released a new book last week that is excellent – I’ll be writing about it shortly.

Thank you to everyone who left a comment – I’ve been a little absent over the previous weeks due to some personal challenges, but things are looking up. In the mean time, I really do find great inspiration in the comments that people leave here, so please accept my thanks.

Hello. I came across your site after reading a comment you had posted off another site. I have enjoyed your approach to weight loss, which is something most of us struggle with. I am looking forward to reading reading through your archives.

I have a favor to ask if possible. I have lost the url to the site that I discovered your comment on. It was about a fellow who traveled the world on a budget and had released a new book on how to work for your self. I was surfing and had come across it. If you cost post the url here or email me that would be great.

again I look forward to continuing to read the unique insight you provide for weight loss. Good Lucl
