Spicy Salsa
I bottled some homemade salsa the other day. I am really getting into this personal preparedness stuff. It's fun and you have a great feeling of accomplishment when you see all of the neat little jars in a line ready to put away in your food storage. I made 7 quarts, that's a lot of salsa! I got my tomatoes at the mexican store 3lbs for $.99. It was very cost affective and really fun. I did think it would be much faster than it actually was. I started at 4 and thought I would be done by 6, wrong. It was more like 8 pm but that is only because I had to brake for fussy kids and dinner. I am excited to make more next year. I am trying to think of more things I can bottle. Right now we have salsa and peach jam coming out of our ears. Maybe I'll learn how to do tomato soup or something next year! All I need now is a garden.

I don't know why my pics came up out of order. I really did start with the empty jars and end with the full ones!!! :)
