Canned Tomatoes

I did my first-ever canning yesterday, Monday actually. I had a bunch of tomatoes and did them up in 7 pint jars. There was enough juice left over to do 1 pint of tomato juice, so when the 7 pints were finished in the canner, I cooked the juice for 85 minutes as well. My parents canned stuff all the time and although I helped prepare the foods for canning, I never really paid attention to the cooking part. A quick browse on the internet refreshed everything in my mind that I needed to know. I remembered my parents doing all the things it took to can tomatos and it was a snap.
