Busy again!
Been busy. On Monday we picked some free Rome apples that a friend from Church offered us. We got about 2 bushels. I plan on making apple pie filling with them. We have enough applesauce and dried apples. I sure wish we owned a cold press for apple juice!
Then later that afternoon we got about 2 bushel of green tomatoes. I plan on making some more green tomato relish and some green tomato mincemeat for pies. Then that night a dear friend offered us to pick her concord grapes. Boy were we tierd from gleaning all day!.
Yesterday we (DH and I) made 35 quarts of grape juice. It smelled so good! It was super thick too so we should be able to use it for concentrate! I have a busy weekend, with a food storage group thing on Saturday and neices baptism and then a wedding! So I wont probably get the tomatoes or apples touched until Monday of next week...Oh well. The grapes couldnt wait though! Glad it is done. Mess is cleaned!
