Our neighbors horse died= accident= but it is so horrid that its hard to decide when someone could handle
gory details.

With Moms help= I have canned 55 quarts of tomatoes. I thought it would be neat and cute to have whole cherry
tomatoes in beef soup this winter so I took the time to peel and can cherry tomatoes. I only did 3 quarts so far. I want to do many more. Since the cherry toms were left whole and there wasn't much juice , I pureed a couple of regular tomatoes for the cherry toms to be canned in. I love home canned food. So pretty in the glass jars. Most of my tomatoes are Big Beef. I ended up with 6 quarts of Brandywine tomatoes. I want to can 24 more quarts of toms.
The only other thing I will be canning this year is Muskedine Juice sometime in Aug. We have a Muskedine Orchard.
I want to figure out how to make a low alcohol wine with the muskedines. My last attempt was high in alcohol. I couldn't drink it.


It's almost July. Can't wait. For the life of me I cannot fatten up this bull. We managed to repair the fence
and set the bull back out to pasture.....after he got out a few more times and ran me all over the place wanting
to play. I don't like playing with horns.

Buckie the Bull= YUM
