Domestic Diva!!!
I "played" in the kitchen yesterday and made our little family some ketchup. I have never done that before. I always thought the purpose in canning for people was a way to provide food for your family for less money. Well I had this conversation the other day at church and the ladies said not necessarily. They just like knowing what is in it and it is healthier and tastier. Well I think Kroger brand is pretty tasty myself and I buy alot of sale items so canning for me has not been a priority. The tomatoes were free from a garden that I took care of while the family was gone on vacation. All the jars sealed :) It looks really pretty sitting on my counter don't you think?

Looks good. I made ketchup once while living in IN. I remember it took a lot of tomatoes and took a long time to cook down, but if I remember correctly the end product tasted good.
Wow! You have moved up in the world of being a true lady!
Well.....I'll tell you what. I am impressed. Looks terrific too. I bet you will be extremely pleased with the taste also. Way to go Martha!

I love ketchup...Just think how proud you will be to serve this to my kids when they politely ask for ketchup with their popcorn!(or yours for that matter...now that my kids have introduced this to your kids!Ha!)Hope you are having a great day...See ya tomorrow.
That picture is called the staging area :) you should have seen the rest of my kitchen. The kids love the ketchup. We did a taste test last night and David and I could tell the difference in Heinz or homemade.
