I can because I can

 I think  I am officially done canning for the year.  I have filled all of my quart jars with tomatoes, pears, peaches, pickles, pumpkin and pie filling.  I have done corn, pizza sauce, apple sauce, enchilada sauce, pinto beans, raspberry jam, and salsa.  I have never canned this much in my life and I think I have done my food storage duty for the year. 
 I just love seeing all those bottles lined up. 

 Time to rest up and recoup for a whole new canning season next summer.  Thank heavens I can't grow a garden year round-this canning business is a ton of work.

  1. That's awesome! I can't grow a garden, but I was thinking of going to the farmers market and canning some things next summer/fall. I saw an introductory canning set at OSH...
