I too cook the over ripe tomatoes, I learned from my grandmother that if its too mushy just put it in a sauce, and spice it up!

All we can do is lead by example, you are doing exactly that.

Everytime I read your stories, I get ideas on what I can do better, this is why i love this community so much!!

Thank you for the mention! I have noticed writing out of frustration is very therapeutic haha!!
