A few notes (and a giveaway later today!)

I’ve got a fun $75 giveaway coming up a little bit later today (I just need to get my staff photographer to take a few pictures for me first), but in the meantime, here are just a few notes.

-The bottom picture in this post was taken with the more expensive lens, so most of you were right!

You guys have good eyes.

(by the way, if you’ve been wondering what camera gear I use, go check out my camera equipment page on my 365 blog.)

My bodycology giveaway ends on Monday, so go enter if you haven’t. It’s as easy as leaving a comment!

-I got 13 quarts of tomatoes canned yesterday, so yay me!

I still have more tomatoes, though, so I’m thinking of making some sauce and freezing it (there’s some debate over whether it’s ok to can homemade tomato sauce because of the other non-tomato ingredients. I’d probably be ok because I’m using a pressure canner, but I think I’ll go the freezing route just to be safe.)

I examined the pictures closely, and then realized it was obvious - she's a very different subject for her mama! What a sweetie. :)

Kristen,

I found this canned sauce recipe today on Taste of Home. Hope it helps.

I jar my sauce all the time with no issues. I have seen some things online that say to add a little salt and lemon juice to the top before you put the lid on, but I haven't done it. I don't like to freeze my sauce, it always seems a little diluted after it has thawed.

The site you linked said don't can tomato sauce in a HOT WATER BATH, but you can in a PRESSURE BATH. You used a pressure bath - did you pressure can, or just use the pressure cooker for a hot water bath?
