We planted about 12 tomatoes in June which I thought was a bit too late to get anything from the arden but my garden rewarded me with about 40 pounds of tomatoes – so far. I still have to pick some more. I’m hoping for another 20 pounds. I spent yesterday dehydrating a big batch and roasting another batch.

I decided to roast a batch with onions and herbs like thyme, Newfoundland Savory and some of my custom blend Sandra S seasoning. This blend will be in my forthcoming cookbook which I hope to have released in Spring 2015. If you have never used Newfoundland savory, you MUST try it. I was introduced to it by my best friend Catherine in 1979 and since then, I have been using it – albeit, sparingly – every time I make roasted chicken, stuffing or veggies. This is one of the best herbs that I have used – and I have used many spices.

This was a good way to spend Sunday.
