I am home healing from my knee replacement surgery, which took place Halloween.
Family has been Wonderful!! With ripening tomatoes on the kitchen table eldest DD stepped in to can them. She will probably need to start a new batch tomorrow.
I broke the job down to 2 days:
1) boil and deskin and start cooking in the crock pot on Low
2) finish hot water bath canning next day
DD prefers pints so she canned in 6 pints. She was making stuffed peppers for dinner last night, used a pint's worth of tomatoes from the crock pot
to finish the meal, so it only took one batch. She did a STELLAR JOB!! All 6 sealed, screw tops loose and produce looking perfect, as you can see.
