Every year Theresa and I say we are going to cut down on our canning and making of jams, sauces and jellies. This year was no exception but we had such a great crop of tomatoes we had to use them. Our daughter (III) looked after our home while we were away and faithfully picked and froze these tomatoes. What were we to do ?Saturday evening we got everything ready and made the sauce according to no special recipe but by 11 o'clock we called it quits and decided to bottle it next day. We made 12 quarts and 12 pints of delicious sauce. Enough for us this year and to share with the family. Next year we swear we will cut down even more. We used to make 48 quarts so we are keeping our word.
Aren't you lucky to have home-grown tomatoes to can and enjoy all year! I'm jealous!
