Overachievement Lass Strikes Again

So far today I have:

-worked out (an hour of cardio kickboxing - not my favorite, but my shoulder isn't up to weight-training today)
-harvested about a pound and a half of green beans and God knows how many tomatoes from our garden
-turned 7 pounds of garden tomatoes into homemade sauce, via our crockpot
-baked a banana cake for a friend's housewarming party
-made a quart each of pepper sauce, green sauce, and garlic sauce for an upcoming SCA event (okay, 3/4 of a quart of the pepper sauce - we ran out of red wine vinegar)
-baked a dozen-plus mini peanut butter cup cheesecakes for tomorrow's gaming session
-managed to more or less keep up on the dishes in the midst of this kitchen marathon, thanks largely to the aid of my amazing husband
-managed to not eat the rest of the peanut butter cups that were bought for the cheesecakes

I still need to make the icing for the cake and frost it, and the tomato sauce is finishing its final simmer. I have no idea what I'm actually going to wear to the party, or where my day went, or why I still feel rather like I haven't done much of anything today....

I never thought of using a crockpot to make tomato sauce. Is it fairly straightforward?
