Jason and I canned 26 jars of pickles one weekend.
We also blanched and froze 20 lbs of beans. This was so worth all the effort. When I cook them up with dinner those are the first thing eaten off everyone's plate.
I canned blueberry jam.
I've made lots of peach jam and peach honey butter, thanks Tina for picking my peaches for me!
Melissa has been such a great friend, we'll she's always a great friend, but lately she's been helping me can. It's so much nicer when you have someone to help you. We just canned our first batch of Apple pie filling. I can't wait to try one.
I've also canned some apple butter and am going to do another batch soon.
The pantry is stocked full and I love it!
Here's Ash and I at Cabalo's, it's a local farm that we've gone to this year for our cukes, beans and apples.

Ahhh, I love canning. I don't do enough of it ... mostly because I don't have happy eaters on the other end of it ... boo!!
But we're having a girls canning day next Fri-Sat and plan to do 5 batches of the apple pie filling. My sister has never done it and this will be my mom's second time. I can't wait ... because the only thing better than canning is canning with a friend ;).
Happy Week!
It's been fun and I'm learning so much! Maybe there will be canning in my future.
Isn't it so fun? We're doing applesauce soon! I love having full shelves and it's extra nice knowing we did it ourselves!
