Did you get a freeze last night and what are you going to do with all those green tomatoes? You could probably sell some. A lot of people might like a few for Thanksgiving - side of fried green tomatoes - they are also good with breakfast.

We got a good frost last night, probably the third of fourth one so far. We are supposed to be back to the 80's by the end of the weekend. We are having 40 degree variances between day and night.

For some reason, the frosts haven't touched the tomatoes or peppers. Both are still flowering and setting fruit. It is crazy!

I'm going to can the green tomatoes in various recipes for relish, jam, etc., and freeze some for making green tomato cake. I may sell whatever I can't manage to preserve in some manner.
