Made some preserves tonight

While putting some blanched green beans in the freezer yesterday, I found 3 packages each of frozen raspberries and blueberries. So today I picked up a bag of sugar and some pectin, and turned them into preserves after dinner tonight. All the lids set after the 10 minute water bath, so these babies will keep for awhile. The blueberries are especially delicious.

Yep, I made blueberry jam last week from fresh picked. Yesterday canned 12 qts of tomatoes, and tomorrow will be working on stage 2 of sweet pickles.

A foodie friend (also one of my neighbors) over on NCT gave me a bag of slicing cukes tonight, so we'll be making Bread & Butter pickles and Freezer Pickles this week. I need to give some stuff away to insure an abundant harvest.

Not unless you're having a body part removed. You guys need to have something like a gall bladder removed to get my goodies. PG got a whole batch of cinnamon rolls for her gall bladder. You're all healthy as horses, so no goodies going out today.:yum:

Something like a kidney or a lung could get you an overnight delivery of JEV's bread and sweets. Is it worth it?

Nice try...no cigar (or jam in this case).:yum: My benevolence is for current amputations and 'ectomy's only.

Oh St. Joseph.
Those preserves look wonderful.
I know I may not be having another body part removed anytime soon, but I'd sure like to sample one of those jars.
I could use them for turnovers, thumb print cookies, just spread on toast with butter, perhaps even use some for mini pies.
Please? sob...................

Please Oh Great One? :shifty:
