I don't like to fidget with food, so I don't remove the skins from the tomatoes. Just chop them up, whiz them in the blender. Add a little citric acid if desired to keep fresher longer, but not too much as this will cause bitterness. Freeze in ice cube trays. Remove when frozen and place into freezer bags. These tomato cubes can later be added to soups, stews, smoothies, juice drinks and the like. A tomato cube can be added into a fruit drink and it won't even be detectable to taste.

How to Save Fresh Pears For Later Without Canning
I had some pears that were getting a little ripe, so I put them into my Vita-Mix blender and pureed them. Then I froze them in ice cube trays and put them into freezer bags. These can be added later to smoothies, cookies, muffins and the like. I put a little vitamin C in a couple quarts of puree and this will keep them from turning so dark and help preserve them. I don't like sugar so much, but some could be added to help the preservation process.

Dieting Makes Me Crabby!
It is normal for our bodies to be crabby when we do not give them what they want. They throw little temper tantrums and demand all the things that we have trained it to scream for. Its all about training. If we train our bodies to want the good things, carrots, apples, pears, celery, nuts, whole grain breads, legumes, nuts, pure oils and the like it will scream for what we train it to like. There is a blue sky above!!

Swiss Chard
Swiss Chard, sometimes called Silver Beet, is plentiful this time of the year. It is good sauteed, steamed, or raw. Learn more about swiss chard here Swiss Chard Link They say that swiss chard is extremely perishable, but I think it lasts really well in the refrigerator. It seems to last as long as spinach, but maybe does not keep as well as kale or collard greens. I got my two bunches of fresh chard at the Zanesville Farmer's Market.

Diet Times**** Let's Eat Like a Bird!!!!!
Photo Copyright by James M. Domokos, 2008
It's time, no special instructions, just trying to lose 50 lbs. that's all. I don't have time to diet, or to think about it so I guess I'll just make wiser choices. I always do better when I don't think about it. I'll do the before and after pictures later.
So far this morning I have had very large portions of watermelon and have sipped on bottled water all morning. Who needs water pills?

Seed Bread at Zanesville Farmers Market
This lovely lady (whose name I forgot to get) makes buying bread lots of fun. She was very cheerful and happy to explain all the different types of breads to me. Pictured is a loaf of the seed bread I purchased containing poppy, millet, sunflower, pumpkin and one other seed I forgot. Wow! Is it really good! If it is warmed a little, it tastes just like it came out of the oven. The breads are make by the Great Harvest Bread Co. 614-920-0095

Honey Whole Wheat, Ten Grain and many more varieties are offered weekly and this table is always bustling with activity. I highly recommend stopping by this booth and tasting one of their free samples. I bet you won't walk away empty handed!
