Of course, getting the produce to the point that it's ready to can is time consuming, but it feels so good!<br><br>My mom has a pressure canner, so we do green beans at her house. It's a lot of work. To this day I still hate snipping grean beans:)AJhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13698674231970766751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27382663.post-61002561664119724162010-02-15T14:57:29.701-05:002010-02-15T14:57:29.701-05:00That's how my mom always did it :) I just reme...That's how my mom always did it :) I just remember how fun it was to mill the applesauce and then eat it warm...yum!<br><br>My mom still has all of her canning supplies - and I'm planning on stealing them this summer - I'm excited!alanna rosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03891655851993542391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27382663.post-44205421298414578912010-02-16T17:45:57.292-05:002010-02-16T17:45:57.292-05:00My mom canned everything until I was about 10-then...My mom canned everything until I was about 10-then we had to switch to store bought, I remember thinking that most everything had no flavor-especially the applesauce and peaches.<br><br>We still make fresh canned strawberry jam; we would probably revolt if we had to eat most of the store bought stuff.Carolinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05165474222874323527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27382663.post-76270072214005922212010-02-19T09:20:23.541-05:002010-02-19T09:20:23.541-05:00I kind of know what you mean about your childhood ...I kind of know what you mean about your childhood memories! My mom and dad only stocked lean meat, veggies, fruit and whole wheat bread. It was a HUGE treat to get chips or cookies or sugary cereal on our birthdays. But your mom was incredibly smart. Reading the chemicals in so much food these days is terrifying!<br><br>I'm excited to follow your new plan and see how it goes for you.
