Fallen Soldiers

It is a sad state of affairs when our soldiers are killed on Canadian soil. This is just wrong!! They should be safe when they come home. We honor their memories and their commitment to our country. RIP gentlemen.

 

 

When the mason jars come out you know fall is here. We planted a half dozen cherry tomato plants last spring and had our fill of the delicious little guys all summer long. But the weather is turning colder and there has been frost overnight. There were lots of tomatoes left on the plants but they were all still green. Not one to waste anything I had my tomato assistant (Tom) pick them all for me.

Last night I chopped them all up, along with a bunch a onions and let them stew overnight. This morning I turned this:

 

Into this:

 
A lot of work for 4 little jars of Green Tomato Chutney. It it will be well worth it. Yummy.
With the leaves fast falling it looks like it should be time to start thinking about heading south again. Can't wait to be on the move. Until next time - safe travels.

  1. When you return from Florida that Tomato Chutney will really hit the spot. Unfortunately you can't bring it with you.
    We're counting down the days ourselves for when we can leave.
    Be Safe and Enjoy!

    It's about time.
