Let's Salsa

So this week I decided that instead of jumping right into the books I’d take it a little easy, just do a bit of school, and use the rest of the time to get my salsa made. Packed up the kids, went to the local farmer’s market to get my tomatoes, onions and peppers. Bought a fancy new pot from Costco. Blended all my ingredients, went to turn the stove on and discovered that the forecast was for a high of 32C for the next 3 days (with increased “feels like” temp due to high humidity) OOOOPS! Our Coleman stove was neatly packed away for the winter in the trailer, so we’ve just been battling the heat. 55 jars later, I’m done and enjoying the fruits of my labour (and sweat!) When we went camping earlier this summer I forgot to bring along a jar for our tacos and bought a jar…I knew I liked my salsa but had forgotten just how much better it is than store bought! Some things are just well worth it.
