Since we are a one-income family, I am always looking for ways to save money. And as a busy mama, time is precious and I'm always trying to manage it just the right way.

Last Minute Halloween Costumes
If you know me or have been following my blog for any amount of time, you know that I'm a last-minute type of girl. I try to be organized and early for things, I really do, but last-minute is just how I operate most of the time.

InstaTuesday
It's been a while since I've shared some Instagram photos. Trying to slow down and enjoy these days with the littles and all their shenanigans. In no particular order, here's what's been happening over here...

Roasted Tomatoes
Do you still have tomatoes coming out of your garden?
My mom gave us pounds and pounds of them and I have the best way to use them up...ROAST THEM!

I like mine a little "charred", but if that's not your thing, you don't have to roast for as long.
Then bag them and stick them in the freezer. They can be added to soups, chili, spaghetti sauce and more!
Roasting tomatoes is super simple...just cut your tomatoes in halves or quarters (depending on how big they are).
Arrange on a sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil, salt & pepper.
Place in preheated 450 degree oven for 25-30 minutes (or if you like them charred, 50-60 minutes).
Cool completely. Place in freezer bags and freeze.
It's easier than canning and brings out so much flavor! I highly recommend it if you have oodles of tomatoes that you need to use up.
I also like to add garlic by cutting a whole head of garlic in half and placing on the pan with tomatoes. Throw in some onions and peppers, if you have them too. Because, why not?
Happy Roasting!
