Hot salsa on a cold day

 The day began with a thick layer of frost. It was 10.30 or so when I took this photo of lingering iciness on the car! 

The sun shined bright today though; it’s been a beautiful day. 

Beautiful but chilly, so I spent most of the day indoors, canning salsa, making tomato juice and putting out a few Christmas decorations! 

While I appreciate still having tasty homegrown tomatoes in mid- November, I’m kinda over the garden, on the other hand. 

I’m sure the 16 degree cold killed everything except the cabbage in the high tunnel, but we picked all those maters the other day, and I couldn’t let them go to waste. 

So, I canned salsa and started Christmas. 

Maybe I’ll leave salsa out for Santa or give it as gifts. 

Reckon Santa would like that?
