Making Sauce.

That giant basket of tomatoes i showed you yesterday?
Lets make some sauce!

Mom boils them for 10 minutes.

Then, they are put in more buckets.

They are transported outside because they can be messy.

Here is a shot of the 'guts' of the matoes.

this is the good stuff that will be the sauce.

You put the matoes in the top of the machine,
then turn the handle.

you can fill it up with a few tomatoes at a time.
It gets REAL hot from the boiled matoes.

Benny hangs out waiting for his mom to finish making
the sauce. he's bored right now.

I supervise from the other side of the table far
away from benny.

see the juices going into the pot?

It's such a cool machine!
it strips the seeds and the pulp and
only the juice goes in the pot.

Later (we don't have pictures) it gets cooked and we added
fresh basil and cooked onions, garlic, and red pepper for the sauce.

it was great!
we had tons of fun.
