This past week was all about enjoying tomatoes. I've been picking tomatoes in the garden and cutting vines to root for my indoor continuous garden. I been working on canning hampers of tomatoes into various tomato products. So far I've put up fire roasted tomato sauce, fire roasted tomato basil sauce, fire roasted Italian pasta sauce with mushrooms, and marinara sauce over the last two weeks. This week I canned seafood cocktail sauce, pizza sauce and salsas. And just in case the focus hasn't been on tomatoes we have been eating tomatoes every chance we get. Toasted tomato sandwiches and BLTs make for quick easy meals during the tomato canning season while not adding heat to the kitchen. All those little bits of great sauces that aren't enough to fit into a mason jar are used for meals as well. So this thime of year it is all about the tomato!

I'm so glad you could stop by. This is my personal blog of daily life and my journey through life. You will find a strong emphasis on family and friends as well as finding my ancestors through genealogy. Unlike my other blogs this blog is more of a catch-all so any topic is fair game.
