Lynn Deasy is a freelance writer, author, foodie, and garden tinkerer. She lives in a 600 year old house in southern France with her husband, Christophe. Currently, she is looking for a literary agent for her memoir CA VA? STORIES FROM RURAL LIFE IN SOUTHERN FRANCE which examines the oddities of French provincial living from an outsider’s point of view through a series of adventures that provide more than a fair share of frustration, education, admiration, and blisters…. yes, lots and lots of blisters. Lynn blogs every Monday, Wednesday, and sometimes Friday.

There’s a monster in my kitchen

The monster takes over the entire stove.  Translation: sandwiches for dinner.
It’s that time of year again- canning.  As usual, our first run in the sterilizer is salsa verde, made from tomatillos.  The sterilizer holds up to 15 half-pint jars and boils for 2 hours on the first day and 90 minutes on the following to make sure any lingering bacteria is killed.  Just what I want on a hot August day…
