Canning is great! I have a day off today and my car is in the garage. I was grumbling to my DH that all summer I had something to do with canning. I have nothing today. Now I have to clean! Keep an eye on the thrift stores. Now people will be donating canning supplies. Hard to believe!

Yesterday was a great day...but sad because my oldest sister is moving from WI to California ( I don`t get it). The fun thing is because she is really downsizing ,:D:D she gifted me with a food processor, a large crockpot and a great juicer! Made juice with apples and carrots today and it was...

I canned potatoes this year and love them. DH said "best `scalloped potatoes " in his almost 60 years! Hurray. They are very handy in many ways.

I think about the ridiculous amount of money spent :(...or mad smilie. Glad its over. We did vote and encouraged everyone we could to vote. Unlike the Electoral votes. These count!

Canned potatoes yesterday. Some of them only have 1/2 of the liquid left. Any thoughts? Maybe not enough headspace? I want to do more.

Never butchered...probably never will...took ours to a Amish farmer near us . They used to be $2.50 a bird but they go up a quarter a year. $3 this year. Best $3 we ever spent. Do great work. Very pleased. The only downside is you correspond by mail. They do them when they are ready. Works out...

Just canned 5 birds. Made 6 quarts. The back, wing tips and neck business made a delicious broth. Will can that tomorrow and will probably have 8 quarts of broth. Really cooked down. Yum. Will have to wait to eat the canned chicken, when I get over the yuck factor!

Finally was brave enough to can chicken. 6 quarts in the canner as I type. Will do broth tomorrow.

Lucky dog! Lucky you! Thanks

I would put oatmeal cookies in them and send to daughter in school.

Today I canned 4 pounds of dried bean. Ended up with 16 pints. Added a little ham, onions, molasses and salt. They look great. Had extra ham so made a pot of pea soup....bonus!

Thanks..I`ll try both!

Question...A 50 pound bag of ( baking) potatoes @ the grocery store is less than $7.. Would they be good to can? Never did them before.

Wish I would have, could have. Thanks for the laugh!:lol:

Some critter ate the roots off my cabbages so stir fryed them up for supper. They were small and delicious.:)

I was looking for a like button to push. Good for you

Tomatoes with basil, yellow pear tomatoes in the big dehydrator and the green pepper rings in my $6 Ronco from a thrift store.
