Canning Tomatoes
Category: food

So like, no journals all week and then three this morning.

(e:terry) and my mother canned 50 jars of tomatoes on Wednesday. That is a heck of a lot of tomatoes but it means we can have fresh pasta sauce again for the next year. It is amazing how much yummier it is. It looks like lots of work. I missed the actual process though because I was at work.

Here they are looking really happy with their work.

Last night (e:terry) and I went out with (e:libertad), (e:mike), (e:jim), and (e:james). It was a pretty fun evening of eating at Mode (formerly Le Metro) on elmwood and then drinking. We ended it flying a kite down elmwood, I wish I had any pictures but I forgot my camera. One of the hilights was walking down elmwood and having a car full of girls cat call to us, lol.

At what temperature will all these canned tomatoes be stored? Or does temperature not matter once the canning process is completed?

You asked last night why it is called canning when it is done in jars. I had to restrain myself from giving a brief history of canning.

Seriously...

thanks for the good time last night.

Wendy's On Main Street In Buffalo
Category: food

The Wendy's on Main street is usually the worst quality food you can get. Not Wendy's in general, just that location is borderline sick sometimes, although it has been a little better recently.

ANyways, they must make so much money off the hospital lunch corwd. It is always so freakin' packed at lunch with everyone from Roswell. Check out how many cars are in line for the drive-though.

Here we have (e:enknot) as wendy herself.

I am totally with Felly.
Now that little Meganknot is going to glide into this world, enknot should commemorate by dying his fabulous hair flaming red!!

Elmwood Village Water
Category: food

I still can't believe that there is Elmwood Village Water. It sounds disgusting. I realize the water doesn't actually come from the Elmwood Village (at least I hope so.) I can't ebeliev anyone woudl choose that over any other water.

On a totally unrelated note, this is how I dealt with my cubicle issue from the other day (e:paul,41100)

hfs!(my new abbreviation for "holy fucking shit") i love the religion free zone sign, i need to make one!!!! maybe a bumper sticker that says that????

tinypliny - 09/22/07 22:12
Elmwood Water. Because we like to make money.

metalpeter - 09/22/07 17:17
That water is half the size and twice the price just like everything on Elmwood. Seriously though how much was it? Did they have it in all the colors of the signs? And where was it? I collect all kids of things for fun and it looks like something to go along with my sabers stuff and Peca's Pickles and Domincks Hot sausce (or how ever it is spelled).

drew - 09/22/07 15:00
hmmm. I might have a hard time getting away with that one.

jbeatty - 09/22/07 12:46
Brilliant idea! I may have to steal it and post it on my cork board.

Fixing (Breakin) Windows
Category: housing

We decided to repair some window sashes and fix the counter weights. One window is awesome, two are shattered. The weights we had for the windows didn't match the weight of the window, so it wasn't working right. I think there used ot be leaded or stained glass there.

Looks liek the inside of the window panel says XVIIII C, seem slike 1900 which would eb the ryear the house was supposedly built.

After I eft the other window in the living room on the floor so it could not falll and (e:terry) walked on it with his boots on.

This one Holy Hock is the only one that survived the japanese beetle plague. Only on eo fof hundreds, and every flower on it survived, it was also kinda drawf. I should probably save the seeds
