You say To-may-to, I say To-mah-to

Well...10 hours, 135 lbs of tomatoes, about 4 dozen jars later...I'm finally done with my Tomato canning! It was a great day. My mom taught me how to do the tomatoes...it was sort of a "rite of passage" her teaching me what her mom taught her...I Loved it! Tomatoes were a ton easier than peaches...Here's my day in pictures!

    Great Pics! Looks like a lot of work. I love the "right of passage" thing! Traditions are so great.

    LOVE the photos!
    And learning to can is a dream of mine.
    I must ask, however: what does one do with 4 DOZEN cans of tomatoes?
