One idea is to eat them green.  You can pan fry them sliced and coated in
seasoned flour or egg wash and corn meal.  
Having them 'ripen'(they don't really get ripe, but they will turn red) in
paper is like buying 'hot house' tomatoes in the store.  They are still your
home growns, but will not taste like the ones ripened on the vine.  
Just a thought.

Had wonderful tomatoes this year & luckily no bugs for once. But the U.P. is

about to have it's 1st frost in a day or 2 says the Newberry weatherman. 
I'll pull the remaining green tomatoes & bring them inside to ripen (not 
unusual for us Michiganders!). I've read about wrapping each in newspaper, 
putting in a box with a lid, & placing in a cool dry place (basement or 
closet). Also have read to place them in a plastic bag with another fruit 
that is ripening (ex:banana) & sealing it. Anybody know of another idea? 
TIA.

Keep the faith!
