Wrapping up canning season this weekend! It’s such an amazing feeling to be done. I, Rose, have stepped back a lot this season. Allowing, Stan, to shine and decided what crazy experiments we shall try this year. Today, we are making cranberry juice (something new and exciting) and applesauce. Then we will put everything away, clean out the fridge, and reclaim our kitchen. Now get some R&R and start planning next year.

Yesterday we rolled up our sleeves and dug a few holes. We ended up harvesting 50 # of potatoes! What do you do with 50 # of potatoes? Well we froze some and we canned 7 quarts. We also did 6 pints of green beans today since the pressure canner was out. Still have a bunch to process for next weekend.

The garden she grows. Some stuff has been far slower this year than in the past but the rain this year helps a lot of stuff go. While checking the potato crop I knocked a few loose so time for some young potatoes.
