BTW, the jelly is always on the top slice.

No nerve touched here.....there are just certain ways to do things.

Yep, the jelly squirts out if there is PB on both side. And, yes, there are rules. Squishy white bread. PB on one side. Grape jelly on the other. Period.

I do enjoy that too! Honestly, it takes longer to prep the beans than it does to actually can them.....

For me it's that I don't have a ton of freezer space. Our venison takes up a lot of room.

Homemade vanilla ice cream and fudge sauce after working in the hot garden this morning. Being a grown up is fun sometimes.

Todays haul: I've got to buy a lot more pint and quart jars. Most of mine are at least 20 years old--and a lot are even older because I got them from my grammy and my great gramma. A lot of them are cracking just from sterilizing them in the dishwasher. I didn't think I'd have this many beans to can

Take your time and get a nap I'm sure your many plants need to be talked to a bit, also We will be patiently waiting, I promise

Ronnie caught some beautiful bass yesterday. I can never resist having fresh fish for dinner. I also fried some zucchini in honor of @HungryChris

NICE!!!! Did you salt them and let them rest for a bit first? What temp did you dry at? Approximately how long did it take?

Phew. I feel better knowing you guys had your daily cocktail. I am intrigued by the wine in a can!

ACK! No cocktail today???? Maybe an aftertail.........

Ooooooh those are the BEST. I used to find those way up in the mountains when I lived in Colorado.

Thank you!!! I'd love to see pictures of yours. Ronnie started mine in the green house --probably in February? I'm dying to see them make some chokes. I have no idea what I'm doing....I haven't even googled about them lol. Todays pick: The squash are here

Day before yesterday was National Fried Chicken day so we had that last night

*wipes drool off face*

I LOVE cherries. Especially sour cherries. Everything is so pretty. You worked hard and it shows!

P.S. I just read online that it is World Chocolate Day today. So, happy Chocolate Day

I was detained by some green beans and a dirty kitchen lol. Since I've discovered that I don't hate lamb, I'm very envious of your meal.

I love a rainy evening

@kayb This recipe might have some potential if and when you get tired of pickling your cucumbers..... http://yesanother.com/2016/04/14/comfort-in-a-bowl-pork-stuffed-cucumber-soup/

Ugh, Anna, you are putting me to shame today. I need to can up some green beans but I can't seem to get myself in gear today. I think I'll just drive up and eat lamb with you guys tonight lol.

UGH. I feel for them. Yeah, maybe raccoons. Today's :
