We had over six pounds of tomatoes from our garden, after giving many away and me trying to eat at least one a day. (A tomato a day keeps the doctor away?) So, I decided to try some canning today. It seemed a shame to waste all those tomatoes! I felt all Southern-y with some pioneer thrown in. I've never canned in my life, but it actually wasn't so bad. After I figured out the new language (like blanche and canning tongs), it was easy! Ansley enjoyed helping, and Christian kept Avery happy, so it all worked out. And I have three cans of Tomato-Basil Sauce. Yum! I might could get into this!
