We hang out at Beth, Nate and Kezi's house in Seymour all day, making tomato sauce and canning it. Everyone pitches in. We use the onions and tomatoes that they have grown in their garden all summer. There are 18 quarts by the time we are finished. It helps that they have a very powerful food processor.
Corinne helps Kezi, age 9, type a letter to her cousin Anya in Ithaca. We play Milles Bornes. Kezi is learning French as part of her home-schooling, so the cards are actually a teaching tool. It is one of the games that Nate and Beth are selling.
In the evening we take them all out to a nice dinner at TGI Friday's in Appleton, WI. There used to be beautiful apple orchards there, but they have all been cut down to build housing developments with million-dollar homes.
