And then here is what I've been avoiding all day.
The forecast said possible freeze last night and snow this morning, so we brought in every tomato that was almost ripe. Then of course it didn't freeze or snow. There is a lot of canning to do. And this is after giving a lot of tomatoes away this week. Yesterday I canned the sixteen pints of peaches that are on the fireplace, and the no-sugar Cinnamon Peach Pineapple preserves and the Cinnamon Peach with Pinot Noir preserves next to them. (The peach with Pinot Noir is from Christine Ferber's amazing book Mes Confitures.) I just can't face the big kettles again today, but the tomatoes won't wait much longer than tomorrow. The really big green ones are supposed to be green, they're Aunt Ruby German Greens.
