I was super excited that I remembered about boiling the tomatoes to make them peelable.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well, if you made them into sauce you could sivie it. and scoop out the seeds before you freeze them

I have a magical device that mechanically separates the pulp from the skin and seeds. I suppose that would would perfectly well on previously frozen tomatoes, as well. This no prep freezing technique may work for me after all. Cool.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I use all parts of the tomato. And by use I mean nom.

I bought seeds to plant today, but I forgot to get potting soil. The seeds i got said I could plant tomato seeds now for fall harvest. People think yes?

Yay for doneness, sorry for the still stupid.
In Texas, I'd think yes, msbelle.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Not unless you live someplace that stays pretty warm, msbelle. Tomato flowers need a night temp range from 55 - 77F to be successfully pollinated. Too hot and they won't fruit. Too cold and they won't fruit. (I have personal experience with the cold end and a published gardener I know of has experience with the hot end.) I wouldn't be planting tomatoes from seed now unless I lived in a very mild winter area. (Actually, even here in LA I bought 4" tomato starts a week or two ago because I didn't trust waiting for seeds.)
But, having said all that, if the seeds are cheap and you feel like experimenting, go for it.

A picture from our day with Hubby's daughter and grandkids. I love the accidental composition.

That's a great one!
While trying to look up what kind of praying mantis it was I saw in the yard a couple days ago, I saw this neat bit on a hermaphroditic butterfly: [link]
