Thats great news!

Only ever had 1 jar go bad after canning on it. That's a better record than I've had with commercial canned goods. I look, listen, and smell all canned items like I was taught as a kid.

I ate 2022 tuna yesterday. Found a couple old jars

I assumed eating vs planting beans

I have a little upright 7 cu ft freezer we bought 25 years ago that is still going strong. Deep freezer and fridge are 15. Fridge compressor iced up once. Freezer drawer hadn't been fully closed because something fell behind and I didnt know. After thawing, no issues. Bought a small apartment...

Cannot thread zip ties through fencing with a hooked finger that prevents hand from going through. I know that personally. Doing everything to prevent that now

Bareback and barefoot horse riding. My cousins took me out a lot on rides. Later I was out alone at great aunts. Wandering around the scrub desert by my house was nice. There was wild babies breath there that I dragged home some of one year along with some lupine. Mom made me show her where...

This is why when I showed up at the ER with the rat tooth in my foot I was all calm. A lot of the medics, who are so much younger, were kind of freaked out.

I have a scar on my shin from hitting the mailbox and the corner spike digging in. It bled like it was paid to and took forever to fully heal. Those also sucked if you were barefoot, but you just bared it.

I like the flavor of the thornless. Mine have nice big berries, too.

I got some blackberries cut back. Just a bit more left to take care of in the old large fowl pen. Did get the old top net cut out of it. It's half dry rotted and needed replaced. Then I can get the hardware cloth up.

As long as I don't try to remove a finger again, I should be canning tuna again finally this summer. I only have a few jars left. That's one of the bad things about last year. My accident was a couple weeks before tuna was running.

Thats a nice looking stash

The horrors of what food used to be adulterated with is nasty. Even today some places try and get away with crap.

The canned green beans I picked up near the end of January for .50 a can are .68 a can now. They were .63 a week ago
