Pomodoro ala Carl

One of the benefits of running one of the cook sheds at Camp Meeting is that we bring home part of the leftover perishables. From year to year this varies, but almost always includes produce (cabbage, onions, apples, cantalope, watermelon, etc.), meat, eggs, and homemade bread. Sometimes, our bounty includes bottles of A1 Sauce, Heinz 57 Sauce, Worchestershire Sauce, and partially-filled jars of jellies -- these are the years that the "benefits" of running the cook shed turns into the "challenges" of running the cook shed -- what does one do with 6 bottles each of A1, Heinze 57, and Worchestershire?????

This year we came home with, among other things, 2 cases of tomatoes. Carl decided to make tomato sauce with them so, for the past two days, our RV has smelled like I imagine a farmhouse in Tuscany would smell -- BUONO! The best thing about this is that we'll be able to enjoy this homemade sauce for months!

Salute!
