In My Kitchen

This time I used my late FIL's blender. A very expensive one he used to make vegetable juices. Just one cranked on that thing, made this tomato soup easy to strained. I also used bigger jars and citric acid this year instead of 1/2 pint jars and lemon juice.

My schedule gotten hectic, after I made this last September. We empty my in laws' house to be sold and many things happened. I finally got a chance to visit my google account  and here I am. Updating a few blogs of mine. This is my very first time making tomato soup, tomatoes came from my garden. I had to watch them carefully because my yard/garden was the deer route in my area. And not thinking, I put a knee high fence around it. Hah! I say...hahaha... Those deer are taller than me and they can easily step over the fence. Yap, they ate most of my tomatoes, and anything in it. The recipe says' that I should have six or seven pints. Can you see how much I end up from that recipe...hahaha... Did I mention my very first time making this? Yap, exactly. :D

This is what DH ordered when he came home from plowing for twelve hours on Wednesday. Poor man worked very hard cleaning up parking lots. I usually add milk with it rather than water, and I only heat it up a little. I been using raw milk for a few years now, and cooking raw ingredients will not give the full nutritional value. No, the tomatoes came from a can. I did not made this from the scratch. Warm up everyone!
