Qiviut; you are rather busy this week! If you get that broiler you could do your water bath canning outside!

I have a bunch of Sweet 100 tomatoes that I think I will use along with some chili peppers for Chili Sauce. They do ripen if you wait.

I am still pulling other tomatoes off the vines. I have a large number of Burpee’s Long Keeper ripening. I went to the local Grocery store and tried to get some of the cardboard trays from empty apple crates to use to keep them. They were out but said to come back later in the week.

I have a ton of basil that I need to top. (I have all the basil flower vinegar that I need at this point!) Wife loves Lavender! I put it along the edge of a rock boarder so maybe it helps with the heat?

Have a good day!

Glad to know the cherry tomatoes will turn!

In for the day - way too hot outside. It was 98 yesterday & we’ll be pushing 100 the rest of the week!
