Default Finished Canning All The Tomatoes

Hi,
I spent the afternoon canning all the whole tomatoes left at the party. I ended up with 11 quarts though 1 broke in the canner. I'm going to save a few jars for next year's party.
I also saved seeds from 15 varieties. Mark and I marked our tomatoes so I knew what some were plus a couple like Vintage Wine were unmistakable. I wish I had written on more to save the seeds as I prepared them for canning. Next year I will. I know some people were saving seeds from chopped tomatoes at the party. So once they are ready, I'll list them on my GW trade page. If anyone from the party wants any of course can have them, no trade required.
Remy
