So I picked up 20lbs of fresh green beans yesterday on the way home,
that might have been a few too many!! I started canning dilly beans
(pickled green beans with garlic, dill, and cayanne pepper) I started
at 6 pm gave up at one am had about 3lbs left 32 pints prossessed. I
pick every bean and fit it into the jar (it just has to be right). I
don't want to see another green bean till next year, then I have to
remember only 10lbs at a time, of course I have to eat green beans
tonight, got to get rid of the leftover 3lbs.
Worked 12 hours last night, woke up today and canned some dill pickles,
went to the farm and bought 30lbs of cukes for tomorrow to make bread
and butter pickles, then I bottled the first strawberry wine (go to
aaastrawberry wine to see).
Today I packed 30lbs of cukes, 17 quarts of bread and butter, 14 pints
of kosher dill spears, I use Mrs. Wages pickle seasonings. I'm getting
the canning done on night shift now so I can go play with my boat next
week!!
give most of them away, but they have to last me a year, that's only 1
pint of dill in two weeks!! A pint of dills and a nice glass of sweet
Green apple wine would be nice on a cold winters day!!
Ramrod, I'm still drinking the fastdrinkinwine.com sediment filled
bottles...lol....actually the Concord on the left is the 100% juice
(welches) that I made and counts as fastdrinkinwine.com...lol
I took the bottle pictures on the kitchen counter, next to polmolive,
who now has a DRINKING problem (look for more on this in an up coming
episode of polmolive gets trashed) but the pics didn't look right, so I
put them out on the deck and they look much better, thanks to Ramona
for giving me the ideal of adding my beautiful suroundings to my work!!
