        I have tomatoes, basile, oregano and squash... I know things like 
pasta and rice freeze well... someone told me that things with garlic do not 
freeze well... so ... any info you have on freezing will be a big help!
                                        Thanks!
                                        Janis  :)

    Tomatoes freeze but can only be used in sauces and soups, they 
will fall apart upon cooking.  Basil and Oregano air dry.  I just 
put mine into paper bags to store.  Squash can be frozen after it 
has been cooked.  Otherwise just keep in a cold dark spot.

DB}  Thanks so much for the directions!!! All I could remember was the
beer.  I do have a GREAT and WONDERFUL way to get rid of bugs in the
grass.  As soon as I get back from our vacation I'll post it.  I got it
off a t.v. show a few years ago and have shared it with the neighbors
and we all love it.  We can ACTUALLY sit outside in the evening and
*HEAR* to bugs POP!! They get so hungry, then drunk, they literally pop.
This way we KNOW they are dying off,  Thanks again.....
