Bob,
Somewhere I have a recipe for pickled green cherry tomatoes; I'll dig it
out. If I remember right they were called fireballs or something like
that because they are spicy. There might even be a couple pints in the
pantry. As for ripening them, yeah, pick them and spread them out, cover
with newspaper; or Gin likes to put a couple in a brown paper sack to
ripen quicker. I like to clip a whole bunch of cherry tomatoes, branch
and all, and let them ripen on the stick.

But, they are filled with green tomatoes. Should I leave them on the dead bushes to ripen as long as possible. Will they ripen on the windowsill if I pick them green? I could make fried green tomatoes out of the bigger one , but I have bushes full of green cherry tomatoes, aslo. I' would prefer for them all to ripen, if there is a way
