It’s canning
time!
I mentioned
in my last post that the cucumbers would be ready soon and are they ever. Craig
has been picking them by the pail full along with zucchini and yellow squash. He
is also getting a handful of green beans and a few snow peas. We had green
beans for dinner tonight. Very good!
Clyda has
made a batch of freezer pickles which taste much like bread and butter pickles
and they were very good. She put them in pint jars and froze them. She also
made open jar dill pickles in a 1 gallon sun tea jar. Those we have in the
refrigerator and eat them every day. Really good also!
Today she
made bread and butter pickles along with another batch of dill pickles which
will be canned in a water bath. We just can’t keep anymore pickles in the
refrigerator.
Craig slicing pickles.
A batch washed and ready to make dill pickles.
Fresh made jelly and two batches of pickles.
Unfortunately
with all this canning we used up all the dill we had planted. Finding dill is a
real problem here. We will check with the farmers market tomorrow and hope
someone has some.
