Yes, the freezing tomatoes works well for sauces.  Someone once said 'you can't
do that' but it's just not traditional and not food unsafe is well washed and
stem/greenery removed.  They can't be used for slicing tomatoes after freezing
but flavor is preserved and all the juices by leaving the skins on until hot
water thaw of just the exterior so they slip off.

Looks like I'm cropping 4 tomatoes a day here for the next 2-3 months plus
cherry tomatoes.  (I have a fairly extensive container garden).

Yes, a lot of teamwork here.  Tinight the Beef stwe was started too late for
dinner, so I'll ask Don to do the honors and we'll have beef stew for breakfast
(grin).  I needed to start the stew earlier, oops.
