Still to do are the rest of the beets, 4 batches of tomato salsa--two with jalapino and 2 with chipotle, plus sauce from whatever tomatoes are left, and more peach something from the basket that wasn't quite ripe. Hope I can finish it all tomorrow but will probably have to do a bit on Sunday.

Oh my poor sewing machine! I am sure she thinks I don't love her anymore!!

You sound awfully ambitious to me. I remember when I used to be able to do that.
