Gas Prices Aug 17, 2005
I filled my gas tank yesterday at Macs in Berea It was $2.59. What am i going to do a bout it? keep on bying it . I got to get to work . if the guy next door could go in 30 minutes later we could ride together .
It costs me about 6 gallons of gas per week to get to work. if i could drive half as much i could save $7.50 per week or $350.00 per year. At $2.59 per gallon. I think gas will be over $3.00 by Labor Day. I hope i am wrong

Why can't you can yellow tomatos?
"How do you can yellow tomatoes?" "Can I can pink tomatoes?" “Can I mix red, orange and yellow tomatoes?” "To can tomatoes safely, do I need to add acid?http://missourifamilies.org/features/nutritionarticles/nut65.htm
Yellow tomatoes are canned the same way as red tomatoes. you can can pink, orange ripe tomatoes. mix and match as you can tomatoes.
to can tomatoes you must add acid. Is that true?Tomatoes were once an acid food that could be safely canned in a boiling-water canner. , because of problems with botulism in home-canned tomatoes care must now be taken. tomatoes should have acid (in the form of lemon juice) added.
Do yellow tomatos have less acid than red tomatos?
"Red ones will burn your mouth more be cause of the acid." Roger isaac

Yellow or orange tomatoes: These are sometimes advertised as "low-acid" tomatoes. They are in fact not lower in acid than other tomatoes, but higher in sugar, which produces a very mild, sweet flavor. Like red tomatoes, these have plenty of vitamin C and potassium, but they don't have any lycopene.
