It's going to be a late night again tonight. It was after 2:00 a.m. this morning before I made it to bed. Had to laugh at hubby this afternoon. He asked if I could reuse the veggies for the next batch of chicken broth. Told him yep, they will feed the chickens, but no I can't reuse them to make stock because the veggies are what make the stock so tasty & have color. You need new ones for every canner.
