Last of the vegtables for 2005…
October 29th, 2005Yes, it’s the last stand of the vegtables in the back garden for this year. I learned a lot about the amount of sun we get through that narrow walkway. I’m impressed at the bounty from my 7 tomato plants (three Roma, three beefsteak, and one heirloom pink capsacium). I learned I’m not letting Robin plant 5 cucumber plants again….I made everything you can think of and still couldn’t use them all. 
We had a power outage the other day, and made the last batch of tomato sauce while answering support calls about ‘the Internet being broken’. That’s the nice thing about gas my grandmother taught me, and my mom cemented- it works even when you don’t have PG&E sending power down the line.
I did this batch a little different than the last one. The last one I did sicilian style, and cooked it a long time and got a very deep rustic flavor. This time I did it a little fresher and brighter with a more northern style recipe. Nonna forgive me, I was experimenting.
