This weekend Glen and I went to the Farmer's Market to obtain goods for making spaghetti sauce and fruits for the week. With our bags of produce we purchased (including delicious homemade pasta), we began to dive into the project.
Yesterday we made tomato sauce using about 7 pounds of tomatoes. We canned some, froze some, and kept some fresh to use this week.
Today we went apple picking and came home with 35 pounds of apples. We used about 7.5 pounds of apples to make applesauce today. In addition, our kitchen was exploding with flavors such as... stuffed jalapeno peppers, homemade guacamole, and two loaves of delicious, homemade white bread loaves. I am sure our neighbors were quite confused by the mixture of smells coming from our kitchen.
All in all we have a had a very productive weekend canning, freezing and consuming delicious, fresh food. Thank God for Farmer Markets!
