I made a similar recipe once that called for leaving the skins on and pulling them off after roasting. That worked well for me since I cannot stand peeling tomatoes!Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07208766776468157501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300298790008212868.post-15323054794680286152007-08-19T07:04:00.000-05:002007-08-19T07:04:00.000-05:00Hi Kris,Thanks for stopping by and commenting so n...Hi Kris,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for stopping by and commenting so nicely on my blog. I'm looking forward to reading yours often as I garden in cold climate as well.

They're saying all the hot dry weather ripened the tomatoes early and they maybe won't be quite as good toward the end.

I'm still mourning the inability to grow a garden this year due to the cities spraying of our area for that stupid, obnoxious, good-for-nothing Japanese beetle. I really hate that thing. I can't have a garden for three years.
