Tomatoes

Tomatoes are ripening fast. So like the zucchini, we need to do something with them. Last night we canned whole tomatoes and some tomato juice. Emily helped blanch the tomatoes and sterilize the jars, I skinned,cored and put the tomatoes in the jars and Jim processed into the wee hours of the night. Thank you to the best family in the world!
Add to shopping list... rubber gloves! My hands were hot and pruny by time I finished with my portion of this job.
Add to wish list...pressure canner! This will speed up our processing considerably and allow Jim some shut-eye.
