What we have been canning…
Sour Pickles, Green Tomato Relish, Pickled Beets, Spicy Dilly Beans and Zucchini Relish.Isn’t canning such a love/hate relationship?

More free junk found on the side of the road.

Canning Jar Labels.
As much as I don’t want to admit it…it is time to start canning! Actually, we already started canning this weekend. Every year I envision myself labeling all of our canned goodies, but it has yet to happen. The truth is, it may never happen. But labeling our canned goodies that we give away to others just may. I have come… Keep Reading
