While my mom was up for a few days this past month we were able to fit in a few canning days. we made raspberry jam, mixed berry jam, peach jam, canned salsa, and chicken. We made homemade bread, and zucchini bread too. My mom doesn't do these things anymore so it was fun to do them together and she got to indulge in a little bit of heaven while she was here with all the homemade stuff. She spent many years canning, baking, and doing it all when we were younger, but now its just her and dad so she had fun doing it again and going home with a year supply of jams. While we were making jam and the jars were cooling it was fun to hear the "pop" of the lids every now and then as they sealed. my mom said we used to sit and watch the jars when we were kids and loved to hear them "pop".

I canned with a friend too a few months back but your mom and you did a lot of it! I was amazed how fun it was and it was pretty easy too!

oh my goodness. You told me that you were canning but I didn't realize it was for the year. That is awesome.
