Good Morning Old Folks

Good morning!

Before I retired, I'd dread the last day of a 3-day weekend. All the stuff I didn't get done, the naps I didn't take...

I didn't use all the tomatoes. I'm considering making tomato jam with what's left. I've never made it, never even had any. But for some reason, it sounds like a way to use up the end-of-season 'maters.

Anyone ever made or had tomato jam? Your opinion?

There is a jam/jelly/ pickling place in Lancaster Co,Pa that is open to tourists. They sell every kind you can imagine. They also have samples out. I think their tomato jam is good on baked ham or used like a bar b que sauce. You can also blend it with cream cheese as a dip

Hershey's Perfectly chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting. It is my youngest DDs Birthday. She is 25 this year.

Happy Birthday to her! Love cream cheese frosting- especially on carrot cake! But it's good enough to lick straight off the fingers!

Never tried it.There is one member on here who makes tomato fudge.

Some of the strangest sounding things end up being really good depending on the combination of ingredients.

Mom made good fried tomatoes. Slice the tomatoes, roll in flour and saute. Sprinkle on a tad of brown sugar and salt and pepper and layer them on a plate. Then with all the succulent drippings in the pan, she would add some rich milk and thicken like gravy and cover the tomatoes. The topping was the best part!

My sympathies. Not long ago new tires for our van drained another nearly $1,000. It sure does feel safer going down the road at least now with tread on them again.

Tires are expensive! But for some reason there's nothing that bugs me spending money on like paying for heating oil. It just feels like I'm burning up my money and it takes so much. I'm still figuring out a good alternative for this winter. We all love to save where we can
