I might have some ?'s for you when I get going here, provided they have enough time to ripen. That's the trouble up here, getting them to have time to ripen.<br />With the green ones, I usually put them in between layers of newspaper in a box and check often. Eventually they do ripen, and though not as tasty as they could have been, are better than those in the grocery store, and organic too. :)<br /><br />All of your comments are so encouraging!

Squeeze each one first if you dry them so they will dry quickly and won't have time to get icky. You have given me hope about tomatoes when we move up there eventually!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06916896512933101955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-71629766560362642.post-69163817632523400512011-08-03T20:18:54.864-05:002011-08-03T20:18:54.864-05:00Sue- I pray you're right!
Mama Pea- I hope so!...Sue- I pray you're right!<br />Mama Pea- I hope so!<br /><br />I really want to be able to can tomatoes this fall. I know this is something that often isn't successful up here in the north-land, but I hope to have it happen. Thanks to Erin's posts and some good canning books, I think I'll be ready if it does happen!<br /><br />Mama Tea- I've never tried a pear tomato, so I hope they're good. They're little yellow tomatoes, about the size of cherry tomatoes.Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18153751759157433693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-71629766560362642.post-79360460261253027402011-08-03T19:43:00.989-05:002011-08-03T19:43:00.989-05:00Looks great!
