October 22, 2012

last week was such a crazy week....was nice to be home all
day and get caught up on all kinds of odds and ends....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

it was 70 degrees today and will be that for the next 4 days....
that doesn't normally happen at the end of October...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

picked another batch of tomatoes today - 23 lbs
(the plants that are next to the house) 

Ross was gone all day so I made some Tomato Juice,
all by myself.....here is the setup....


the blue tub has the cleaned cut tomatoes, then they go into the food processor,
then dump that into the strainer and let this catch the seeds and skins......
then dump the finished product into the stockpot.


this yielded 5 quarts.....very excited that the tomatoes are
producing enough for us to still be canning at the end of October.

started a loaf of bread earlier in the day and worked the several
steps of making bread into the tomato juice project.....love
a productive kitchen!!! recipe on January 29





watching the Lions play football, the Cardinals play baseball and
the Presidential Debate.....busy TV night!!!

Salads for dinner......Pleasant Dreams!!!
