It's been a long day. Harvested all tomatoes with any color at all as we've had cool weather several days in a row and the flavor will be changing; these will be the last for fresh eating. Prepped last weeks remaining tomatoes to go into the oven and roast 5 hours... ended up with about three pounds bagged up and put in the freezer. If it warms up and more tomatoes ripen they'll go directly to be roasted and frozen. With enough seasoning the cool weather taste won't matter much.
I did finish the passports for the Jubilee Reign... 807 total. There'll probably be more later in the year but for now it's done. Also started sewing up assorted sizes of bags as largess for the next reign. Their highnesses want to use bags instead of baskets for gift giving and I have some good sized upholstery samples for the purpose..
