I spent the morning sewing. I made Fern a blouse to go with her skirt. It's an Enid pattern so I blogged it over on my Enid blog. I spent the afternoon making tomato sauce. Using my tried and true recipe. Last year I had the use of my friend Lisa's Moulin. This year I bought my own.
Peter helped and washed and de-stalked all the tomatoes.
The new stove is a lot bigger and the pots sit without overhanging. I can get 3 large stockpots on the new stove. I struggled to get 2 on my old stove.
A moulin makes it so easy to get the seeds and skins out of the sauce.
I found my Moulin on Ebay on a buy it now. I was so happy as I only paid $16.95 with free postage and the ones on the Auction had been going for over $40!
I prefer these old metal Moulin to the modern plastic ones.
Here's the results. The large jars are 750ml.

I think I need a moulin too. The sauce looks delicious.
How do you manage it all????
I'm sure you'll make good use of all that, must try tomato sauce myself one day. I've heard its entirely different to store bought.
