Snow Day = Canning Day!
We knew a big storm was coming in last night, so Molly and I prepared. We didn’t stack wood. We didn’t go buy food stores. We didn’t load up on candles. What any good, All-American farm girl does when she knows she will be housebound from snow? She cans. Molly and I successfully canned nine quarts of pickled green tomatoes and fourteen half pints of jalapeno jelly for Christmas.
Tomorrow’s forecast…more snow (aka applesauce, corn and pickles)

Love it! Sounds like a very productive snow day!
Awesome! We put two heaters in the greenhouse last night.and the tomatoes look alive and happy this morning. I just want another couple weeks of tomatoes although your green tomatoes look great, you care to share your recipe?
I love canning. Learned when I was a young girl. You are doing well with your daughter. I made homemade chicken broth all day yesterday. I already canned tomatoes, tomatoe sauce, mexican pinto beans and jellies throught out the summer and I need the freezer space so I think I might can the chicken broth. Every done that?
Happy canning!
