I made spaghetti sauce - by myself

My first attempt at making spaghetti sauce was 95% successful.  With a great recipe from Mom, who got it from Mrs. Worshkey (okay I spelled that horribly) - the best cook ever.  I say 95% because it's a little salty, but that's okay.  It's still tasty and next time I will not add all the salt but add in little bits and taste along the way.

I picked lots of tomatoes from our garden (and there is still lots more to go) and some teeny tiny onions.


Put them in the blender... and chopped them up.  Occasionally I added one of those tiny onions or chunks of the big on.


Then added it all to the big pot and let is boil and cook down for about 2 hours.  Then added the seasonings and unfortunately too much salt and let it cook a little longer.


The into the jars it went.  8 quarts and 1 pint.  Not bad for the my first batch.
