I'm CANNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
I am so excited! I am actually canning some tomato relish with tomatoes from our garden. It is smelling SOOO good. This is a first for me and to be honest, I am just a little nervous about the whole cleanliness thing. But I'm sure it will be ok. I am starting to feel a little like a homemaker! I have a cow and will have some canned goods by the end of the night. I also have beautiful bell peppers from the garden. I can't take much credit for the garden other than picking!! That is pretty much the work of my husband. The days have been warm, but BEAUTIFUL over the last week or so. It is starting to really feel like fall is coming. It is the BEST time of the year for me! This has been a slow week activity-wise so it's been nice and I feel like I had an opportunity to catch up a little. We left church last Wednesday night almost out of fuel only to find that there was no fuel to be found!! All the stations were out of diesel. We were already trying to figure out what we were going to do to get through the rest of the week and we found ONE station that still had diesel so we were able to get fuel. Needless to say - we went to the grocery store and stocked up on food because if we DO get stuck here, we would at least like to be prepared. Scary times. Well, I suppose I had better check on my relish!!! I'm starting with something that only requires a boiling water bath. I'm still a little aprehensive about the pressure cooker!!!!!!!!!!! Have a great weekend!!!!! |
