TOMATO TIME

I learned a lot this year about tomatoes and how many to plant in one spot! I planted them way too close and we have so many tomatoes! They are taking their time turning red though so I've had a hard time getting enough ripe ones at one time to can them. I finally got enough this week to do a batch. I just did crushed tomatoes. I can use them in a lot of different recipes. I still have a ton of green tomatoes so hopefully I'll get enough to make salsa before they freeze. Sorry if all of my canning posts are boring. This is my journal too, so I try to write about what I did during the week, and lately canning is about all I've been doing.

Beautiful! I have been canning a lot this fall, at least a lot more than usual, and I am really enjoying it! Not much grew in our garden this year, it was cold late and blah blah blah but NEXT year will be THE YEAR!!
