Sauce 2008
A wave of relief went through me as the last drops of hot thick sauce dripped into our final jar. For me, it meant the last messing around with tomato season 2008. For Lenore and Peggy, it meant the end of 20 straight hours of cutting, boiling, pouring, capping, taking trash out, mopping floors, and freezing ourselves in a windowless room of loud kitchen equipment. Lenore and I packed all the jars into the trucks, treated ourselves to hot lentil soup with ham in downtown Asheville, and then hobbled ourselves through two art galleries. On the drive home (2 trucks for all the tomatoes) I listened to loud loud loud music and called everyone I knew who would put up with me. We got home at 8 pm and slept the sleep of the Just. Just done. Just shoot me. Just get up in the morning and go to the farm and see what else needs doing.
I have not tasted a cooled jar yet. We got home Thursday and yesterday was about getting ready for today. But from what I tasted at the kitchen - it is right.
This story needs more details and you will get them - but for now - know that Sauce 2008 is here.
