Saturday August 4, 2012
The weather forecast called for rain. I think we have gotten about 10 drops so far. The small town we live near has mud puddles. We are so jealous as we don't live 2 miles from the city limits. They say there is a cold front moving through. I tell you what we are about to sweat to death in this cold front.
Spent the day canning tomatoes and potatoes yesterday. Another 8 quarts tomato sauce and 14 quarts new potatoes added to the pantry. I have a large roaster of tomatoes cooking down for more sauce today and I just put my first 18 pints of slices carrots in the canner with another 18 to go in. I guess this is as good of a way to spend a Saturday as any!
Have a great weekend..

That is a blessed way to spend a day.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping for rain for you. We got some a few days ago and I am grateful for every drop.
however do you peel your potatoes so perfectly round and smooth... simply beautiful...!!
ReplyDeleteMy oldest daughter bought me this fancy peeler for christmas one year : )
Deletethat fancy peeler sure does make them look nice... hopefully it is quick and easy too... thanks for the response...
DeleteHot here, too, but we did have a thunderstorm. When they said no rain. Go figure.
