What I did this last summer....

This summer was busy with gardening.......when my husband and I moved to Ohio we started a vegetable garden. Coming from the city and never having done it before, we went through many trials and errors...in fact we still do.....but growing our own food and cooking it and preserving it has been a pleasure and sometimes  a pain ....


This year we made spaghetti sauce for the first time....lots of grueling peeling, seeding, cooking down to after many hours end up with 4 cans of sauce......Oh well...the fact is that we will do it better next year and we will still thoroughly enjoy having the sauce this winter!

We canned peppers, pickles, tomato sauce, salsa!, peaches......so our summer was basically consumed with that! At times we said we will never do it again but I doubt that! I am sure we will be out there again next spring!Here are some pictures of our gardening.....and cooking....
