A box of tomatoes gave me the opportunity to make a big batch of tomato sauce using Kenji Alt-Lopez's recipe. The result was rich and full of flavor. I decided to freeze everything rather than can. I am grateful for the opportunity to make and enjoy such wonderful food.

402 ice cream is always very creamy. My chocolate was good and chocolatey. The staff was great. I sat inside and enjoyed my treat. Thanks, folks!

Another great breakfast from the Penelope's team. Their green sauce is the hit of my morning. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. Thanks, folks!
