Saucy Saturday

If I had known how busy I was going to be today, maybe I wouldn't have stayed up past midnight last night while my Honey finished some work he had to do (I can't even remember the last time I stayed up so late!).

So what I did today?

*fed the boys breakfast
*folded a load of laundry
*ironed Honey Daddy's shirts
*cleaned up the kitchen
*made homemade spaghetti sauce (with tomatoes from our garden)
*canned 21 beautiful pints of homemade sauce

Don't these look yummy?

*ran to the grocery store and did a little shopping (alone!)
*made a steak dinner for Honey Daddy since he is leaving tomorrow to go to a conference in San Francisco for a week (*sigh)
*cleaned up the kitchen (again)
*cut Honey Daddy's hair
*gave the boys a bath and put them to bed
*took a picture of my sauce so I could blog about it!

Now I think I will go upstairs, get a bowl of ice cream and RELAX!

    That is sooooo cool! I've never "canned" my own sauce or tomatoes. It doesn't help that I only grow about 10 tomatoes per year :( But I do make big batches of sauce from costco crushed tomatoes and then freeze the sauce.

    Where do you store your gallons of sauce and for how long? My husband makes a wonderful sauce that I would love to can and store...
    Once again I wish I had your green thumb...
