I am starting to live among tomatoes. They are in the garden, on the counter, on the dining room table, in the fridge & in almost just about everything we are eating these days: salad, frittata, sandwiches, omelettes, pasta.
I am hoping to get to some canning soon. I bought this kit from Ball to get started. I’ve done the full water bath canning before, but with the few number of plants I have, I don’t think I will be doing a ton. Maybe 2 or 3 small batches at a time.
In the past I have used creative recipes, like different salsa or jam, but I think I’m just going for straight up canned tomatoes this time. It will come in handy for homemade sauce & soup.
In other aspects, I am chomping at the bit to get to some scrapbooking. So many layout ideas & stories circling around in my head. I am hoping to find some time soon, until then I try to be mindful of jotting down notes & keeping my ideas organized in Evernote. More to come on that later this week.
Until then enjoy tomatoes for world peace!
