This year we have been blessed with tomatoes! A few weeks ago someone we know who owns a greenhouse in town gave us a bunch of tomatoes that I used to make salsa and spaghetti sauce with. Well, it is time to finally start pulling my tomatoes off the vines (I think I have about 60-70 Early Girls and tons of Tiny Tim tomatoes!). The problem is that if you live in Alaska like I do tomatoes don't ripen fast enough before the cool weather hits. So I decided to bring some of them indoors and start the ripening process. I was setting them in my kitchen window that gets lots of light, but was running out of room. Then I came up with the idea of going vertical. By placing the tomatoes in mason jars I was able to get more of them in the window sill. What is more they are kind of decorative up there! Pretty cool!
