Making Mincemeat......

I checked out my garden last evening, in anticipation of getting a batch of green tomato mincement going. To my surprise, there were many ripe tomatoes there as well. I think I will be canning up some more tomatoes as well. We have had really warm weather for the past couple weeks, and that makes for ripe tomatoes. Normally, we are waiting for the first frost.

So I am getting into the kitchen to make a batch or two of mincemeat to can up. I have a recipe for fruitcake which calls for mincemeat. To buy the stuff out of the grocery store is nearly $5.00 a jar. I can make it cheaper. So off to the kitchen I go.
