Sauce. Simmering. Smells. Spectacular.

Sadly, the tomatoes are not my own. Currently in the large garden plot I have a RIDICULOUS amount of tomato plants that have reached arrested development. They aren’t growing or dying or wilting or flowering or turning red. Just sitting there.

Funny how a simple task like making a giant batch of homemade sauce and bring such contentment. Not to mention the kitchen smells SPECTACULAR.

My recipe is simple. Fresh Tomatoes. Fresh Basil. Fresh Oregano.  Fresh Chives. (Those did come from my herb garden which has FLOURISHED this year!) And a wee bit of Himalayan Sea Salt. Boil it down for 15 minutes then blend in the Ninja. Put back on stove and simmer slowly for another hour and a half (at least.)

Ah, September. I’ve been waiting for you for months…
