Canning

This year was my biggest canning year yet. Jennifer came over and we canned 100 pounds of tomatoes together. We did 50 pounds of just canned tomatoes and 50 pounds of spaghetti sauce. The sauce took over 3 days to cook down and can and then waterbath. I also did 50 lbs of pickles this year. Most of it went into spears but I did do 8 lbs into relish. Then proceeded to freeze onions, greens peppers, hand picked strawberries and raspberries. This week I may flash freeze green beans as my awesome neighbor has told me I have free reign in his garden. If I can bribe Jennifer over here again I would love to spend a day making calzones, pasties, pizza rolls, pizza dough and pierogies. Always much more fun with a friend.
