I forgot to take pictures, but I've turned into "Suzy Homemaker" this week.
I am currently canning 7 quarts of marinara sauce. I started this morning with a big box of tomatoes from our garden, and grabbed only things from our garden (except for garlic and Italian seasoning) to make sauce. Tomatoes, a few carrots, some zucchini, basil, parsley, onion, green pepper, and a couple of bright red cayennes. I cooked that down, and used my magic immersion blender to blend together (didn't even peel the tomatoes!) and then cooked it some more. It's now in the pressure canner, and I can't wait to put the jars on the pantry shelves!
I made a batch of soap two days ago, and need to bottle 12 gallons of wine and keg 10 gallons of rye pale ale.
Sometimes I LOVE "housework"!
