It’s that time of year when gardeners start preserving food by freezing and canning food. Since I am an amateur gardener now, I am also an amateur preserver too! 
Lucky for me, my mom is a little more knowledgeable about the subject than I am. She has talked me through tips for freezing zucchini, making my own spaghetti sauce to freeze (even when it has been 85* and I don’t have A/C), and trying something new with me – making ketchup!
We used this ketchup recipe, which is actually really simple if you read the instructions carefully before starting. We did everything the LONG way, but next time we’ll know better.
