Monday, Jul. 25, 2005 - 6:36 a.m. More sick of hearing newscaster talking about the heat ("Drink plenty of fluids! Don't wear heavy clothing!") than the actual heat itself... Hottest day here in Mohall in at least 4 years. They predicted it would get to 103�, it "only" reached 100� (98� when I shot this photo of our kitchen window thermometer). So, naturaly I spent the day... What better way to spend a very hot day than canning up some of my garden bounty! Without air conditioning, this wouldn't have happened. From left to right? 17 half-pints of red raspberry jam (gathered and frozen 1 or 2 cups at a time earlier this month. This is the best harvest I have had of these pricy berries since we moved into this house 10 years ago-too much shade in the backyard to get much more from my 5' square bed) 8 half-pints of nectarine jam. With all of the pest damage I had one the few fruits that set on our miniature tree up front, I am just happy to get a single batch of jam this summer. And- 13 pints of (hot) peach salsa. Peaches from my "early" tree (what I could keep from the tree rats, anyway). Pretty good for one day's (well, a few hours of it anyway) work in the kitchen...
