All Is Safely Gathered In

What a blessing it is to be able to have food to bottle. As a new wife I learned to can from my mother in law. She taught me all the little tips and helped me a few times. Now it has become second nature. Every year we plan our summer around the garden and canning. I love to see the bottles all lined up on the counter when I am done. It makes me feel so productive and blessed to have the opportunity to have yummy food for the winter. We do corn,peaches, pears, applesauce, apricots and all different kinds of jam. It is so awesome to see them all lined up on the shelves when I am done. There is nothing like grabbing a bottle of tomatoes and making a yummy spaghetti sauce for dinner!
