We've Struck Red Gold! Tomatoes!

It's that time of year again. Putting up tomato sauce like any good Italian mama would do!

Last Saturday we spent 11 hours canning sauce, tomato broth/stock, and tomato salsa. I never feel like it's enough - what can I say, I like to stockpile this "red gold!"

225 pounds of tomatoes PLUS

Piles of Onions, PLUS

Bundles of basil, EQUALS

100 Quarts of Sauce, Stock, and Salsa!
