Home Stewed Tomatoes

At the rate we are eating the tomatoes from the garden I won't have any in the freezer for this winter. Today I picked 3 pounds and stewed them and put 3 cups in the freezer. That will taste good in a pot of chili when cold weather rolls around.

As I dipped my tomatoes in boiling water to peel them, I used my mama's big metal spoon that I brought home with me. I sure miss her. This reminded me of all the canning and freezing she would do from the garden and all the wonderful food we enjoyed in the winter.
