Not counting the cherry tomatoes we have 7 tomato plants. They are all taller that me. I know that is not saying much but they TOWER over me! Friday night Martha came over, not wanting to go to the rodeo with the rest of the family. She and grandpa went right to work and picked another bowl to add to our pickings of the last blog!
Then into the kitchen we went. Garry scalded and pealed, Martha pealed, and I sliced and put those juicy tomatoes into jars. What a team!
We canned 21 quarts of our own plus 6 quarts from Mom and Dad's garden. In all we have canned 34 quarts of tomatoes from those 7 mega-tomato plants. So impressed with ourselves!!! !

I really want to know the secret to those tomatoes. Could you send a couple of jars to Texas?

so, shelia- you know it's not polite to brag right? hahaha! i am amazed at your bounty or booty which ever you like. those look delish and have to give the most tomatoe award to you and your honey. i may have had the first red one, but you my friend have had the most over all. good job and next year, i'm going to do some canning myself. i can't eat salsa all the time. oh wait, yeah i can, it's just not good for me too. if i could figure out how to enhale it without chips like would be fabulous!!! tell the master gardner good job too!
