Keeping Busy



Thanks to my brother-in-law, a gentleman farmer. I have been keeping pretty busy.
I call him the produce fairy. We come home to see this on our door step.
But you will never hear me complain!

I've made Jalapeno Jelly.
It turned out good & hot.

And I have made spaghetti sauce

Do you see all those tomatoes in the first picture??
Who KNEW all those would boil down to ONLY about 2 quart bags of sauce?
I will never complain about the price of spaghetti sauce again. And that was a whole
days work. It was really good and will taste very "summery" this winter, but that's a lot of
tomatoes and work!
No pictures of the corn. but I bought a bushel of corn to cut off the Cob and put in the freezer for the winter. A lot of work & messy, but well worth it in winter.
Just getting use to my new normal.

How frustrating to get so little after all that work. It will taste yummy though!
