Feb Canning Report 2014

Well, Feb has come, and its time to get some more things canned up, I need to do meat but I also need to do some of the storage things and in some cases its just a matter of re-doing up stocks. As always if I have a empty spot in the canner, I can up jars of water, this keeps the canners full but it also means that I have pure safe canned water for power outages etc, and if I need the jar, its easy to pop the top, and use the water. I will add as I can for the month.

  • Beans in Tomato sauce -8 Pints (should have made these into a extra pint or two and more sauce.. o well, as they are to go in soups or stews they will be fine.. Pressure Canned
