Chris was gone this weekend, so....

Items put up this weekend:
  • 1 qt raspberries (frozen)
  • 5 lbs roasted roma tomatoes (frozen)
  • 6 pints pickles (frozen, thus bringing the season total for freezer pickles up to 12 pints)
  • 20 pints crushed tomatoes (canned--it was a group effort, I'm getting 5 jars)
Items unsuccessfully attempted:
  • 10 lbs apples sauce from crab apples (I don't have a food mill, and I wasn't going to peel all those tiny apples, but I thought maybe a sieve or a potato ricer would work to separate the peels from the apple mush. They didn't. Luckily, I tried it with only 2 lbs first, so I only have a little bit of skin-on apple mush to work through. It tastes very good with yogurt!)
