It has been a prolific garden year. I have canned about 50 pints of salsa from my garden tomatoes, onions, and peppers. I have frozen so many quarts of tomatoes I’ve lost count, and I’ve also frozen onions, zucchini, squash, and peppers. I’ve canned pasta sauce, canned dill pickles, bread and butter pickles, cowboy candy, and bread and butter jalapenos. I’ve added 15 more cucumber plants to extend my pickle harvest, and I’ve got 45 new tomato plants on the porch to put in for fall, to replace the spring tomato plants which are pretty much worn out. The 40+ pepper plants are crazy big and loaded, so lots of canning to do there. It’s just so hot outside that it wears me out. I’m ready for fall!!

LOL. I know what you mean. Hubby rarely consults before he gets a notion to pick. So he often presents me with a big batch of stuff for which I have no time, or am too tired to deal with. LOL

What is cowboy candy?
