Tomatoes
There were lots of them. I feel very blessed. And by the time I was done canning them I was grumpy. If someone has a trick for living a peaceful orderly life during canning season, please enlighten me! On our shelves we have pickles, tomatoes, grape juice, peaches, and pears. This year we've used almost all our jars. I have pumpkins yet to do, but that's just one day of work.
What is your favorite use of tomato sauce?

These pictures remind me of the time that Mom's garden had the nerve to produce tomatoes like tomatoes were never going to grow again. But there were a whole bunch of them still green out in the garden and Mom heard rumor that it was supposed to freeze. So it was dusk and Lance and I were out in the garden picking green tomatoes and I was trying to figure out what Mom was going to do with those bushels of green tomatoes....
ReplyDeleteWe washed them and hand dried them and laid them out on the basement floor and they ripened beautifully for canning. So there!
