Beans and okra are popping up now and so are the potatoes. I am so ready for canning season which is right around the corner.

I am going to try and get a pattern cut out today. May even be able to get one made lol. Just wondering what hubby will think of the idea :D i guess when I tell him that this will save him lots of money each year he will be happy with it, I hope :P

I noticed this morning that our Heirloom Tomato seeds are popping through and also our Zuchinni seeds are popping up. I am so ready for this canning season.....well I still have to get my canning seal :gig

I, so, have to learn how to make these. BubblingBrook.....I sent you a PM :) This would save us so much $$$. We spend close to $20 to $25 a month on disposibles.

Yes.....Welcome :frow

Well, salt is still good for seasoning :) Then again.....I love the taste of real fresh veggies & meats without spices

I love canning our fresh potatoes from our garden each year. We probably wind up with 200+ lbs. or more and I am in the kitchen for a week or 2 just canning potatoes, but I love it. Yes, I agree with smaller potatoes = mashed potatoes and bigger potatoes for salads.....and like you said they...

You get "Rear Smear"? :gig

I have always heard that a woman should not be in the garden during that time.....but I haven't heard of them not being able to can.

I'll take a few of the milk bottles. We get fresh milk from a friend and it would be great in glass jar.

Canned 7 pints of dilly beans. First time ever canning these and they smelled so good. Only setback is ..... We have to wait 2 weeks before we can eat them so the juices and spices can marry. Gonna pick more beans at 6 am in the morning

You put the wrong smiley up :drool I love reed taters, we have those planted here, oh....bout forgot :drool

I totally agree with you there. But if it were fed to me in a meal and I was told it was something different, I would probably eat it.

Will be canning Zuchinni Relish tomorrow with fresh Zukes from the garden :ya gardening is the only reason that I love summer.

If you got to Yard Sales.....ask if they have one, tell them that's what your looking for. I did this and got my Pressure Canner for only $3. I was like :ep :ya I use all the time.

If you put the carrots in the jar raw and then add HOT water to them adn then process them, they shouldn't be mushy. This is how I can my carrots and they have never come out mushy. I only process them for about 30 minutes for quarts and 20 for pints. Also, this is just a thought, maybe you...
