SO cool

i just broke in my canning set today.
i now have six, lovely, sealed jars of brandied cherries (that took me all afternoon to pit grrrr)!!!
now i'm thinking up things to do with them....cheesecake, ice cream, manhattans, brownies.....the cherry infused brandy is supposed to be really awesome as well.

dilly beans are next on the list. i have the ingredients...i just need to find the time.
then ketchup and maybe some raspberry jam.

And doing some more of that myself, soon. Friend is going to be bringing me his household's tomato overflow here shortly....

i used the recipe out of ball's blue book and it worked really well. definitely recommended.

i wish i had some tomato overflow. where's my mother-in-law when i need her?

the mother-in-law-of-the-chartreuse-thumb has tomatoes that are still green.
i went out and bought about 40 roma's yesterday. we'll see how far they go into ketchup.
