Chrissie-You need to fashion little umbrellas for your tomato plants-or fancy hats to keep the direct sun off of them! I can see it now....Chrissie designs tomato hats! :)
They kept very well, Suzy. I didn't know about the newspaper 'trick' either. But then again ours don't freeze on the vine. There's more danger of sunburn :-)
Hope they taste good to you snooker....they sure do to us! Wrapping green tomatoes in newspaper is a great way to save tomatoes that will otherwise freeze on the vine, Patti. We are usually able to "extend" the season by a month using the newspapers...this year was a banner year....almost 6 extra weeks!!!
We now have two left, Morris. The one we had tonight was still quite tasty. Two to go! This is about the latest in the season we have had garden tomatoes....so GOOD!
These are the last 3 tomatoes of the season. We picked them in the beginning of October, wrapped them in newspaper....and still have home grown tomatoes!
