Rain ~ Tomato Sauce
It thankfully rained for a bit the other day. So happy to see that.
I canned tomato sauce. Beautiful 6 1/2 pints, but realized I dag'gon forgot the lemon juice. I wasted 7 hard to find lids, opened the jars and froze it in freezer bags. Sigh....at least I got the tomato sauce made this year. Woohoo to that.

Brought in another 3# of jalapenos. We have now harvested a little over 12# of them.
Brought in 8oz. of hot banana peppers. Not enough for mustard sauce. I guess I will wait a day and see if I'll get more.
