Yes... I think I am a on my way to being a bit OVER whelmed---- Hubby just brought home 20 dozen ears of corn--- for me to put up tomorrow! (he wants to get more-- we'll see Not to mention the 2 more BUCKETS of tomatoes we picked just TODAY... and the yellow squash which are coming out our ears..... I'm gonna have to buckle down and just bring up the CANNER-- and can some of these tomotes into salsa and sauces etc..... The corn will be frozen...that will be "easy" just HOT and time consuming.... He also got 3 pecks of peaches for $10!! So I SHOULD-- put up some of that-- and get some more-- but oh my---- While typing this-- I have been looking thru some of my favorite "canning" / homemaking blogs-- to get some ideas and tips-- and came across--My Daily Round-- one my new favorite blogs to read-- and she reminded me that in just a few weeks our Grapes and Apples will be ready (actually last year our grapes ripened while I was in the hospital delivering Stephen--so my mom picked them for me).... Oh- thanks for the reminder... Here are some other encouraging reads --incase you are in my shoes... The Simple Womans Cannery-- including 4 parts of Encouragement for the Home Canner-- Hotwater Bath- This one is a new one for me-- but lots of info.. This is when I wish I grew up doing this stuff-- because I certainly did not-- and the canner makes me SOOOO nervous--- but I really don't have room to freeze much more..... I hope and pray I pass along some of these "homemaking" tasks to my daughter when she arrives....(although one task I no NOTHING about is sewing--but if I can find someone to teach her--I will PAY them to show us).
Well I better head off to bed-- tomorrow looks to be a VERY busy day!!!
