Hi peeps!

I've been MIA because I've been BUSY and when I wasn't busy I was binge watching Paternity Court on YouTube. I know it is a stupid show but I like laughing at the stupid people (I really just feel sorry for the kids though). Here's a couple hints about what my mom and I've been up to the last few days.

After eating this lovely tomato sauce we made for the last two nights, we were able to can 16 quarts of it and have a quart with meat and 4/5th of a quart that was just not full enough to can, left over.

I'll tell you what, freezing the tomatoes ahead of time saved use a LOT of work. All you needed was to dump the tomatoes in a sink of hot water for a few minutes and the skins came right off. This saved a lot of time when we were running the tomatoes through the food mill because the skins weren't gumming up the works, the few skins that slipped past, were annoying, but easily dealt with.

We will probably have to can this much sauce again later in the season because our plants are still producing, but we had to start a batch because our freezers were full to bursting with frozen tomatoes.

Just gorgeous!
