I”m working on another “secret quilt” for a friend that is almost done, but since i can’t quite yet show you that, check out this double yolk egg i cracked open when i made pancakes this weekend!
isn’t that a sign of good luck or something? or am i thinking of a chinese silver slipper buckle?
in other food prep news, i processed about 30 pounds of tomatoes this weekend (into pasta sauce, tomato juice, and a fresh salsa base (tomatoes, onions, garlic and salt)). i’d originally wanted to can it, but i couldn’t find conclusive evidence that the addition of oil and/or garlic wouldn’t lower the ph so low that a water bath canner was dangerous. plus, once i’d cooked the tomatoes down, it was probably only going to be about 5 pints and… i didn’t know if it was worth it. so, hooray for a chest freezer!
