This week I had to pick up by car because that's just too much to lug. Worked out, though, since a neighbor wanted me to pick up a box of tomatoes and kept Tadpole company while I did that. Yay for serendipity!

Last night, I canned ten jars of corn salsa. Good stuff, and I have the ingredients for another batch. Well, almost -- I need to get more apple cider vinegar and I think jars. Every year, I have fewer jars because of all the gifting and swapping, but I forget that I need to buy more because when there are empties around it always *seems* like so many.

And I am a mere $47.50 from my fundraising minimum. Want me to stop mentioning it? Donate Here! :)

In the interest of full disclosure, I feel I should mention that due to foot issues (plantar fasciitis that I'm trying to reign in), there is no way I can safely do the full Walk. They offer alternate starting points, so I have decided to do the five-mile route, which also means Tadpole and DD may be able to join me, which is awesome. I still feel strongly about doing it, and Zoe's dad is sending me a Team Zoe t-shirt for me to wear that day. It also happens that it will be the day before Zoe's "tipping point". Do not follow that link unless you're in a place where it's okay to tear up.

Come raid my third floor kitchen for jars, please.

I also have jars that you're welcome to (since my cucumber crop failed). Also some Super Sweet 100 and Black Cherry tomatoes.

We have some canning lids that are probably never going to be used, and maybe some jars too. Remind me to give them to you. Maybe at Scott and Rachel's?
