Sorry for my absence everyone..... been busy here at home with the garden and chickens. Last week I worked a local sportsmans club shoot.... it was 4 days long Now the garden is in full swing and have been canning for
the last 3 days. :/ but it's worth it. I got my first ornament today Really cute too.. I'll post my pic as soon as get the chance.

I can but not anything low acid because I'm scared of the pressure cooker, my mother always used one for canning and then one for cooking roasts etc, but my girlfriend (teenagers) had to put on dinner one night and she was using a pressure cooker, I saw the weight blow right off the top and it just missed her head she had been leaning over the stove for some reason and since then I have never touched one. Maybe I should just face my fears and get one and learn the proper way to use it and maintain it, mom never had a problem. I remember she had to get a new weight and always kept her gasket in good shape.

I had an "incident" as a teen back in the 70s regarding a pressure cooker, white beans, too high heat AND too much water. It took me hours to clean the kitchen up after that! I do not own a pressure cooker.

Love the blue bird and the chicken ornaments.

Going to look at them real close on my computer tomorrow as the phone screen just doesn't do them justice.
