Last week I got to learn how to can tomatoes with my friend Tara. Today Dusty and I tried it on our own at home. IT WORKED!! Yeah!! We canned 6 wide mouth mason jars. (Not all pictured above)Now we can make salsa for a while longer and still be using the tomatoes from the garden. I don't know why I was so intimated by canning...it's really not hard. Dusty and I enjoyed doing this together today, both the girls were taking a nap so we had a good window to get this accomplished.
Mr. Multi-tasker...talkin' on the cell phone and canning tomatoes.
This is a horrible picture, but hey, I got canned tomatoes! :) Maybe after I eat some my eyes will open up again! hee,hee

Time for the students to become teachers...I'm comin' over for a lesson!!! heehee
He, he. Love the title.
The kids'll be thrilled when you pop open a jar, grab a fistful of 'maters and squeeze :). Or maybe you'll let them squeeze 'em.
Hopefully we'll get to your tomatoes before the frost hits. I am totally canning Salsa next.
This is addicting.
Yea, Leia!!! You go girl! It's been years since I canned tomatoes. I doubt if I remember how! Keep up the great work. There's nothing better than eating the food you grew and canned with your own four hands! (Yours and Dusty's) Or would it be 14 hands!
