I am finally done! No more canning for 2009. We love to can the food from our garden and from other people's as well, but after several months the novelty wanes. This year we put up:
Apples
Applesauce
Spiced Applesauce
Apple Syrup (It was supposed to be jelly, but it never set up.)
Apple Butter
Apples Juice
Gingered Apple Chutney
Peaches
Vanilla Peach Syrup
Grape Juice
Grape Jelly
Grape Syrup (Again, jelly gone bad. Maybe it will be good on ice cream?)
Tomato Paste
Pickled Beets
Talk about a very busy harvesting season. Nothing tastes as good as home grown and canned food. It is amazing! It makes us smile when we open a bottle of peaches in January. Such a great reminder that it will be warm again!
Much better
