Heirloom Tomato Jam

Hi friends, it’s been too long, I know!! I had started a post earlier in the summer to share some of my garden with you, but what can I say, life got busy.  As you might know, I have become an enthusiastic heirloom gardener, which in and of itself is still shocking to an old “brown thumb “ like me. However, knowledge is power and I love learning. The day I stop learning is the day my time on this earth is through. I hope! 

As you can imagine, I’ve been harvesting tons of tomatoes! While I love to eat, share, roast, and bake all that I can, I’m always trying new ways of enjoying my harvest. One of those newer ways is Tomato Jam.

Baking, Gardening and Enjoying August (TFT PARTY)

 Hi friends! What a wonderful start to August for us here in Northern California! The first day of August came in with a very unexpected, surprise little rain storm.  I was, needless to say, ecstatic! Not only that we NEED IT SO MUCH, but my garden was thrilled! I don’t think I told you yet, but what I decided to do, when trying gardening for myself, was growing Heirloom tomatoes and veggies. 

I’m kind of an information junkie when I start something new. So, I thought if I was going to put in the effort, I wanted the maximum output! My ELEVEN varieties, now,  are coming along quite nicely too! Oh! Did I mention I just finished baking 100 blueberry breakfast cookies for my church today? Yep, busy but happy!
