Mathews County VA
Some of the best days I've ever had
With all my new and old Blisters*
(*Short for Blog-Fest Sisters)
My CG* Kate Bag harvest 8/14/9
Haven't a clue what kind of peppers those are.
Some hot, some sweet...
But which is which??
Ahh...the tastebuds will tell me!
(Pepper & bean seeds from my dad.)
(Oh! Maybe he'll know - wait, he gets his peps mixed up too!)
And...
Once 30 pounds roma tomatoes - now?
Almost 2 gallons tomato sauce!
My first endeavor "putting up" any kind of food.
Can you imagine how fresh and wonderful
it's going to taste during the cold cold winter?

xoabb
expect anything!
That beach looks so inviting! I want to wiggle my toes in the sand and flop into that ocean!
ReplyDeleteAs for putting up food for the winter. I did that for a season of my life. It makes you feel so good and so PREPARED! Hooray for you! I have an excellent applebutter recipe if you want to pick and process apples this fall!
Those should be Italian peppers and bland is likely what they are .. in a good way .. I believe they are the pepper part of Sausage&Peppers.
ReplyDeleteTomato 'sauce' looks sooo good ..
I love putting stuff up...it makes me feel so good.
ReplyDeleteI can not wait to hear the excitement in your voice when you use it this winter and it brightens your day!
Okay, your title of this post totally cracked me up!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sky and beach. Love the name "blisters." That is really QUITE funny. I would call the big peppers banana peppers (that's a southwest Missouri thing), but only if they're sweet. If they're hot, I would call them hot peppers. (Also a southwest Missouri thing.)
ReplyDeleteAnd the sauce. Wow!!!! My tomatoes are FINALLY starting to ripen. (I made salsa and my tomatoes for half a salad--yukky store-bought ones for the other half.) Hoping to start making some things to freeze soon!
I love that sky/beach scene, and doesn't it feel wonderful to put stuff up for the coming winter?
ReplyDeleteOh, I do love the sky and beach shot! Would love to be there! The veggies look delicious! Reminds me of the years when I had a garden!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!

From one blister to another, that beach is my favorite spot in the world.
ReplyDeleteThe tomato sauce looks good enough to swim in. Beautiful.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, sauce.
ReplyDeleteand I love those peppers
Great beach shot...I would love to be there...sauce looks great too!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinkin' somethin' somethin' with some marinara sauce....
ReplyDeleteCBW just made the "bestest" salsa I have ever eaten. Hot, well blended, awesome. Marinara does sound good, cheesesticks?
ReplyDeleteI would love to be there. Thanks for providing the balance.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful beach...I want to be there! Yummy harvest...you've been busy!
