Althought I'm still not finished I canned the following this weekend:

13 qts. pears
20 qts. peaches
12 qts. applesauce

I need to do more applesauce tomorrow and then will be finished for a bit.

Did you do any canning this weekend? Freezing?

Wow, great job! You sure are one busy lady! We did no canning or freezing this weekend. We did, however, admire the pumpkins in the garden. My daughter is so happy that we have about 6 pumpkins in the garden. One is huge, and the others are slowly catching up. Now they just have to turn orange!

Great job on the canning. You are going to be eating so well this winter.

I'm so jealous. I want to learn to can.
I'm asking for a pressure cooker for my birthday next month! :)

Just finished the last 7 qts of applesauce. We have more apples coming but not until later in Sept. which will give me a welcome break from canning.

Our apples will not be in for another month, but I will can applesauce when it comes in. It's so nice to have fresh applesauce whenever! :apple:
