Homemade Salsa
Filed under: Gardening, In the Kitchen..., Lesson Learned, Our Garden
Because of my recent tomato explosion, I feel the need to cook, bake or do something with all of the tomatoes I have on my kitchen table. So Ben and I made salsa and also a tomato pie for True Blood Sunday. I wasn't really happy with my tomato pie but I tried it again last night and will post about it tomorrow.

Your pipes will freeze.
This morning I woke up to find my hot water not working, my yard flooded and water shooting up out of the pipes outside of my house. Ironically enough my husband left at 6 a.m. earlier this morning to catch a plane to Los Angeles, California. Before he left, he wrote down the plumber's name and number just in case I needed it.
