it turned out to be 16 & 1/2 quarts. i have not looked to see yet what the 2nd picking is like. i'm kinda not wanting to see how much the raccoons have damaged. will check things out tomorrow as some family are coming over for lunch and they probably will want some fresh ones to go with them.

tomatoes as i was peeling, coring and chunking them up. super sweet this year. yum yum yum :) i had some coleslaw earlier so i've certainly had my veggies today.
