Salsa Making Day

The summer seemed to sneak away this year
and the tomatoes were ready about the time school was ready to start.
We were able to get our salsa making day in.
The boys love this one.
Grandma put away corn one day after school was back in session
as she got a lecture from Joe for that. He likes doing that, too.

Sam had the ninja blender job.
He's worked in Grandma's kitchen before.  He knew how to use this thing.

DH and Grandpa came in from getting the combine ready to help.


Lots of hand make light work for sure and these are the days
we are making memories.  I bet years from now we will yearn
for the taste of this delicious treat.

Joe had the straining job, getting rid of most of those tomato skins




Chopping peppers and onions--where did his shirt go?



I put this here just in case I could possibly try in the future,
although Jean only got this out at the very end, so she didn't really follow it at all
and did count or measure anything, ha!


Sam grilled us burgers for lunch


Here is the evidence that I was there and helping, not just taking pictures.
Joe snapped this of me.
