My friend Heather and I are both teachers so we have the whole summer off. We spent a lot of time canning and picking fruit. We picked over a hundred pounds of tomatoes, blueberries, cherries, strawberrys, and apples. We made bluberry syrup, blackberry, blueberry, and apple pie filling. We also canned salsa, tomatoes, roasted tomatoes, and apple sauce. It was a lot of hard work, but a lot of fun. I love living in Oregon which has an abundance of fresh fruits and vegetables.
