Faithful reader Jason Fox put it simply and true on Friday after I posted about starting to make spaghetti starter for the first time in four years.

“It’s that time of year where the amount of tomatos that are going around from family and friends is insane,” he emailed. “It would be super cool if you wrote about your spaghetti starter or other uses for these things, and other harvest ideas.”
