To stewed tomatoes

As God as my Witness, we will never buy a tomato product ever again (except tomato paste and tomato juice). And I'm here to testify that we haven't. Last year was not a good tomato year. Nevertheless, we made it. As we have for the past five years.

Three batches of stewed tomatoes are still cooling. Our kitchen smells really good! And Mr. Big Food hasn't even started cooking supper yet.
