Doing a bit of "My Garden.."

Emma asked me to make a flower picture for a friend's wedding the other day. I haven't been doing much these days, frustrated with the fading of the greenery... ah well. I keep trying to think of ways to preserve them. Anyway, it was fun. I've a few ideas in the works for artsy things, including these... so we'll see what happens.

Tomatoes

Dip in boiling water until skin cracks. Dip in ice water. Slip from skins and fill jars to 1/4 inch from top. Add 1 tea. salt and 2 tea. lemon juice. Seal and process 60 min. 14 heavenly quarts so far ready for spaghetti, tortellini soup, vegetable beef stew and... oh my goodness!!
