Tomatoes in oil part 2 and some thread too

   Posted by: Marion   Filed under: Fiber, cooking   Tags:

Last week I was checking upon our tomatoes and I discovered a huge oil puddle in my closet.. Rats! the oil came from the jar we were keeping our tomatoes in. I took the jar out, opened it very carefully and that was very smart. It almost exploded, but not as bad as it could have been.

It looked like this:

So after I cleaned all up, and closed the lid again, I put it back in the closet, this time in a huge glass bowl. So if it was to overflow again, at least it would not get on my shelves again.

Today Dan_e and I checked the tomatoes again. It looked fine and it tastes soo yummeh!

I scooped out a bit to fill a 0.25 litre jar to give away as a birthday present for a friend we are going to visit tonight. We are going to make a cheese quiche with it tomorrow. We’ll keep you posted.

I also bought some yarn for my friend, as she is a knitter too. We went to De Afstap and I only bought yarn for her. I have a huge stash and I was very brave to not add more yarn to it. After that we walked through de 9 straatjes (the nine streets) and in one of the many awesome shops I found me a thread can. And some cute sheep in a games shop:

In the lid is a small hole you pull your yarn through. Then you knit, knit, knit and your thread never gets knotted. I love it :) The little sheep is just cute.
