WOW....we are finally done canning!! This was our first attempt at canning and I would have to say it went pretty well. About half way through our pickles we read that it helps to cut the cucumbers then soak in ice water for 4 hours to help with the crispness. We haven't had a chance to compare them yet but everyone that has tried them said they were wonderful. At the local farmers market I purchased some Mt. Dew jelly for my sister and she said it was really good. We might experiment with some different sodas and attempt jelly. Sunday, August 16, 2009

I'm glad you have a blog!!! Awesome job canning, I'm impressed! Ryan did some pickles & salsa and I have to do some spaghetti sauce still. I've never canned either, may end up freezing instead, we'll see how ambitious I get!
