Peach jam and pesto

Those are the items on the list today. I had to run to Home Hardware to get another couple of cases of jars. I seem to have run through all of mine this year. Perhaps I should start asking for them back from people...

Home Hardware is a dangerous place. I started by also picking up three clearance sale bags of onion sets, and ended off with an ice cream maker. All perfectly logical (of course). I've been meaning to get an ice cream maker for a while, as it will help me in my quest to reduce my food miles and garbage. The apple corer/peeler/slicer will help with the apple sauce I'm planning on making later in the fall. See? Logical. (and so were the towel rack, toilet paper holder, and leafy garden doohicky)

Ahem.

Off to make that jam now. Unfortunately, the tomato sauce didn't go off so well. It was too 'tomato-y' apparently, and a bit too acidic. Not sure how to fix that.
