Good morning people,
Ose: good to hear your better half is doing good.
We had ourselves a 50 deg night last night........ it was hard dragging my carcass out of bed. Canning day today, beets and cucumbers with a in law. The better half and her mother get to gab all day. We did peaches last Sunday (16 quarts). We have about 25lbs of butternut squash to be processed this week from the garden. I did a greenhorn mistake this year with the garden, but after last season I thought it should be done. To fresh of manure, lots and lots and lots of weeds. Sometimes pulling the weeds, it felt like those clowns handkerchiefs, never ending. But it is producing.
We were collecting those sauce jars from the 'Classico" pasta sauces. They were and still are "Atlas Mason" jars. Well they changed the top from the regular canning jar lids size to something smaller. So it looks like we will be looking for new sauce jars. This year we'll be trying canning whole tomatoes.
Enjoy your day
