Okay, I don’t want to brag too much, but I just have to say that this year was my first perfect season–canning season, that is…. Almost every year my daughter and I can salsa and tomatoes–not because it’s economically sound, but because they taste so good! We go to the farm and get our ingredients and then spend two days with wrinkly hands in the kitchen. This year, for the first time I can ever remember, not one jar broke, and absolutely everything sealed. We canned 41 quarts of tomatoes, 12  half pints and 19 pints of salsa for our 2 households. Yum!
