I need a chip.
70 pints! WOW! Are you feeding an army there? I remember once in late summer I canned many, many jars of French plums. They were so easy to do, and looked so pretty all purple in the jars. However.......... my family was not so crazy about eating them as I was canning them! LOL! I eventually had to dump them all.
do you make something called chow chow ,too?
OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS! I finally made it in the first five commenters at seedsower! YEE HA! Looks like lots of work but the results will be delicious! A very nice picture post! Well done!
OOOHHH It looks so yummy! How nice to have such a big helper. She looks like she is doing a wonderful job!!! My mom is making salsa tonight because she cannot figure anything else to do with her extra tomatoes!!!
Yum! Do you sell it at a local farmers market?
If I can get you a jar of fig jam, could I trade you??
Oh yummy. I made zucchini bread today from a two pound zucchini. I also made a creamed vegetable soup with a tomato base and zucchini. Wow that is a lot of zucchini, Judi
Do you eat 70 pints of salsa, or give some as gifts? That sounds like an awful lot of work. I know once my friend and I picked 22lbs of blueberries and I don't ever want to pick another blueberry again!
That is awesome.
Oh did I mention there was an error in the point count and as it turns out YOU were the winner of the Mz Xanga contest after all!

Now about that salsa...
70 pints WOWOWOWZZZA
hmmmm... is that on my diet???? i bet it IS!!!!!
Yum!
If you eat 70 pints in a year's time, you will be opening up a jar every 5th day.

Wow, that looks so yummy! I am in awe of you!
OH that looks yummy! Ben is a salsa conneusieur... did I spell that right? lol He likes it... a lot. lol
Looks like you guys did a great job!
Awesome...........................your family is certainly a rare breed ................its been since I was knee high to a grasshooper that my mom when she was alive did all these things, now that is the good life for sure.....................thanks for sharing....have a great TGIF
Oh, that looks divine! And like a TON of work! But so worth it! Are there onions in your salsa? Salsa is my son K's favorite thing. He cam eat chips and salsa forever, and then he's too full for dinner. We are trying to get him to not turn the chips salsa-side down, on their way from the bowl to his mouth!

Oh, I was also going to ask if you add the ring to the jar lids at some point?
If your sharing or selling....I'll send you my address....lol.
hi,cm;)
Oh yummy, I want a jar, too!
Mmmmmm...and to think we missed that! Elisabeth and I stopped by on Wednesday around 12:30. We met your mother in law. Oh she is so sweet! We tried to find you at the church...but no cars were there. We tried...it wasn't until we were half way home that I remembered I had your cell phone number in my phone. Duh!!!!
Next time I will be a little less blond!
Love Ya!!!
ohhhh and by the WAY! that was TUDESDAY!
sheesh! you should know that by NOW!
have a great day!
Is it good and spicy?
Oh! Flash really likes that stuff!
Well, there are other things to do in Hooterville!
You must have Internet though!
what a tease...
Is there one jar in the batch, just one, w/out cilantro? I'll gladly purchase it from you.
Hot or mild? My salsa has to have great taste and great kick. We can help you eat some if you get in a jam.
Have a great weekend!
I tried commenting on the old puter last night, and it didn't take.
YOU GO GIRL (and your little helper!) Beautiful produce made some kickin' salsa I bet!!!
Looks like you have winter of good eats.
ship me six pints asap !!
That's a lot of salsa at one time. It sure looks yummy! My tomatoes are almost gone, but my daughter's are still coming on good. She's supposed to bring them over and we'll make salsa today again.

wowee! that looks arduous! at least it gives you something to post about- i bet no one else on xanga just made 70 quarts of salsa! is it hot spicy or mild salsa? and just to make you answer to question again, are those for sale? i'll take one or two!
HAveing a really good day here... I think I'll watch some video! Are you in dans contest again? Why can I never find that? Am I just not looking hard enough?
I wish you were coming up in the next month or so too!
Or I was going there! lol It is going to be fall color picture taking time soon! First I have to get everthing I can out of summer... Do you have the roadtrip with the girls planned yet?
Holy wow...that's mucho salsa.
Soooo, you sell that stuff? 'Cause I would definitely put in an order, hehe.
Hope your weekend is really nice one, sweetie.
And thanks for the message, that was hellacool of you.

Yes! There are a couple of obstinate co-workers that almost got my puma stuck in their crevasse! But a good boot would have been better! LOL! But I was nice!
I have a Breedlove 12 string guitar 7 steps from where I am sitting right now. It is wonderful to play.

Yes! A Fastball song from several years back...
I have not really started on Sunday's post yet! Maybe later! LOL!
Yummy... Where are my chips????
Okay, I need your salsa recipe. How many canners did you use to do all that salsa? Also how do you make your tomatoes with basil and garlic?
Little doubt, the dude is completely fair.
