Harvest: pick, chop, stir!

The tomatoes are done, really done, and it seems too early.  Last year I harvested up to and through Thanksgiving.  This year they seemed to be in a rush, the Mortgage Lifters all came on at once with a beautiful crop of 1-pounders... the week before my trip to Whidbey Island.  I roasted  pans-full and they are bagged and in the freezer.  They will bring summer back to quite a few winter meals.
This is the newest toy on the Lane, and it makes garden clean up a breeze, for which I am so grateful!  One of my favorite colors, too!  And these guys are a team, as you can see...
