I made something :)
Tomato Coulis. 1 kg tomato yields 4 jars. I hope the preserving went well, time will show ( if we don’t eat it all right away 
Update: tried first jar. Preservation went well, it went “pop” when I opened it. Sauce is tasty, strong flavors, a bit much garlic perhaps (can there ever be enough garlic?).

Growths on a Plate
Despite a meager summer it seems we still have things to eat from the garden. The squash made a serious comeback and may yet produce more if the weather stays fair. Tonight we kicked our pasta up a few notches with a decent tomato sauce from specimens ripening on windowsill, and topped it with a stir-fry of homegrown squash and peas. Yum.

Growths
It’s been a lousy summer in our outdoor growing spaces. Cold and wet most of June & July makes for poor crops. This squash plant remarkably survived the weather and neglect from us and produced this fine specimen ( enjoyed tonight on the grill ).
Otherwise we had a few cucumbers and tiny, hard-skinned, but flavorful tomatoes in the green house. A small crop of sugar peas (should do more of these next year), berries and some apples on our new tree. Gardening is not for the faint-hearted in Norway
