Okay, the tomato situation is out of control. I searched and searched and finally found a tomato sauce recipe on the Internet that looked like something I could handle. Sure, I have never seeded a tomato and I don't have a food mill, but come on... really... a food mill? Does anyone have one? Can't my handy-dandy hand mixer do the job? Well... after an hour-and-a-half of chopping and seeding and almost 3 hours of roasting in the oven I discovered, no, a hand mixer could not do the job. Because I didn't have the mill to eliminate the skin, the sauce ended up tasting so bitter it was inedible. What a bummer. Nothing like wasting about 5 hours on a sauce that I had to throw out. Oh, well... at least I got rid of about 50 roma tomatoes. I did also make a tomato basil quiche that wasn't so bad so the afternoon and evening wasn't a total loss.
