Gods Blessings

God blessed us with an abundance of 25 pounds tomatoes and 3/4 of a bushel yellow crooked neck squash. I was so excited.  Then I thought what will I do with them? We had lost our pressure cooker in our last move....so canning was out.      

I did some research and found a simple way to freeze the tomatoes ..as for the squash when we pick them out of our garden, we wash them and cut them up and freeze them in freezer bags, that is what I decided to do with them. For the tomatoes all we had to do was to blanch them in boiling water for 1 minute and then the skin falls right off. We then froze them in zip lock bags in the freezer.
