That was my worry; my phone takes pictures that are WAY too high quality to post! But I'm sure there's resizing software out there somewhere.... Yeah I've never tried green spaghetti sauce either, but if you can make salsa just fine, it seems like a viable option!
Hope has resurfaced with the computer - I gave it to my tech-savvy brother (the only sibling who isn't on this site), and he thinks he can resurrect it WITHOUT losing my data! That guy's a lifesaver.
Read the rest of the comments here, and I did not know such a thing as green spaghetti sauce existed. O.O That sounds strange but delicious!!
As far as the computer troubles, it’s certainly not ideal, but you could try taking pics of your art on your mobile device and submitting that way. (You’d need to see what photo editing apps are available to resize and stuff. That’s the part I’m struggling with since Windows 11 broke my scanner.)
Yeah, I had a bajillion green tomatoes last year too, and made salsa verde. It's pretty spicy (too many jalapenos, maybe?). The first thing I'm planning to do is green spaghetti sauce ("Pomodori Verdi" if you wanna be fancy!), but I suspect we won't use them all up. Maybe I can pawn some off on family and neighbors.... >:)
I guess you'll just have to come visiting over here for a month so you can use one of our computers to post, eh? Or maybe I should come to you!
A hundred pounds, huh? That's impressive!! Sadly, I don't really know what to do with them. (Lots of salsa...? Many casseroles..?)
I know what it's like to get sick and not know the cause. That's happened to me a ton of times.
I'm sorry for the loss of your father-in-law. That's really sad and mysterious.
It's a real bummer that your computer died. If you can't post during OCtober, you can at least make a bunch of rapid-fire OC posts when you get a new one.
Call it karma. Call it luck. Me, I just don't give a... BOUNCE!

Oh my goodness, that’s unbelievable! I’m sorry to hear all that craziness happened all at once.
I’m glad, though, that your husband is doing better and that you have support during this with your sister-in-law keeping you company, and I hope the rest of your move goes smoothly.

I'd love a visit in either direction, tbh!

Thanks, Keba. That rapid-fire thing isn't a bad idea! I can just spam you all at some later date, haha.
