we got back from vacation and my tomatoes have gone crazy. I have more grape tomato's than I know what to do with and the big ones are starting to ripen at an alarming rate. I plan on sharing with a couple of the neighbors, but I need some yummy recipes.......I will be making corn and black bean salsa with some of it, but there is only so much of that I want to eat...and don't EVEN suggest canning these babies......first off, I am NOT a canner, too much work...and second I want to eat them fresh......so any good ideas????? throw them at me.....you all have my email, if not, it is in my profile!!!
FRANKS.....!!!!,

I'm a busy mom with 4 growing boys....recently divorced and back to school myself full time to add to the chaos. Gluten Free cooking scares a lot of people, but it shouldn't....I'm hopeful that this blog can help people make the transition a little less scary.

About Me
- Jen
- I'm the mother of 4 boys.....from high school graduate to elementary school, 10 year span from oldest to youngest. Recently divorced, back to school full time, was a stay at home mom for 15 years. Diagnosed with Rhuematoid Arthritis in 1999, Gluten Allergy/Celiac in 2005. Have not had an RA flare up since going GF!!! There isn't enough money in the world to make me eat gluten!
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.....
1. I babble. A lot. In real life and in cyber space. Sorry, it is just is who I am and I'm not likely to change that about myself anytime soon.
2. My recipes are usually a mish mash of more than one that I have 'tweaked'. So just beware if you follow one of my recipes. I rarely make the exact same thing twice, there is usually some variant. Play, have fun, it's food, enjoy it!!!
3. Cooking times on all my recipes are approximations. I rarely set a timer. I've gotten better at setting the timer as life has gotten crazier, but I still like to burn things on occasion, just to keep everyone on their toes. Plus it's a good excuse to open the windows and air out the house.
4. I have picky boys. Your boys might not like the taste, texture, color of some of my recipes, but my boys do and that is all I can strive for. Sorry, I can't make everyone happy, I just do what I can to keep my crew on the go.
5. If you have something I need to try, some tweak you have made, some bad outcome, let me know.....I like to change things up and may not have tried what you have tried.
6. Cooking is an experiment. You have to be able to fail and just have fun. If the crust is bad, then eat the filling, if the filling is bad then eat the crust, and if the whole thing is bad, well, just open a bottle of wine and tell the kids to make soup.
7. Always remember, Blessed are we who can laugh at ourselves for we shall always be amused.......
