I love canning if done correctly you need not to worry about making people sick. I buy huge flats of strawberries and make jam. Yummy..
Get a beginning canning book. It should have step by steps. Glad I am not the only one running around being Suzy homemaker. Thats why hubby married me

Now I'm going to have to find the canning book for dummies. I tried to make jam with loguats and it turned into syrup.
On the bright side I'm real good at processing (freezing) chickens and hogs.

There were a bunch of us last year on the canning thread...we did a canning swap! It was great fun. I got some chokecherry jan (delish) and some other stuff...watermelon jelly...and a bunch of great recipes. I will have to look up the thread. oh, Geez it just popped into my head...."what are you canning today?" Check it out. Terri O...wishing the garden was already in!
