Tomato Juice

 We have an abundant  cherry tomatoes  at our garden and we couldn't eat them all so we have been juicing them.  Ms.  Burrito is very  enthusiastic in helping Mommy juice it.  
 She find it so much fun to grind the juicer.  She also plays with the  remains (skin and seeds) after the juice has run out.  She makes it into balls.  I think it would be nice if I have a big a land and I can spread this seeds and  I have many  in the next year hehehe.  I actually did not plant my cherry tomatoes this year, they just came back from the ones I had last year.
 We had fun looking at the skin and seeds coming down with a hole in the middle.
 I bought two dozens of jars  from the store and now I am out again.  Gotta buy   another   case  because I have many to   juice once again.
I just have one question, how come it is called canning when in fact we are using  jars instead of cans?  Would it be appropriate to call the process jarring instead of canning?  Just  asking hehehe.

  8. It is a good idea to keep the little ones busy around the kitchen so they will develop a love for cooking and food preparation. Mine is in charge of our Mango tree :) http://riccio.zenfolio.com/life-of-a-child/h2fd7e0e8#h308bc9b5

  11. I always thought it should be called Jarring instead of canning too!
    All my Southern aunts used to just call all this saving of food "Putting up" as in she was Putting up juice or Putting up corn.
    That made sense because they were Putting the jars Up on the shelf for Winter.

  19. Beautiful Rose! Is there a verb to bottle? Then you can say that you have been bottling your vegetables. What are you going to do with so many bottles? Like Hazel says : they fight cancer.

  20. Is the day 'canned' when you can't do anything else but preserve your produce?
