I WAS NOT GOING TO CAN!

I am tired.

I am busy. 

I feel overwhelmed. 

Cam and Guen wanted help canning peaches. 

So we canned 3 boxes of peaches for them. 

And 20 pounds of chicken. 

It is sooooo convenient to have on hand. 

Then I decided I needed to can. 

So I did 3 boxes of peaches. 

48 quarts of deliciousness. 

I love seeing rows and rows of peaches. 

Even better is eating those yummy treats. 

But I wasn't done. 

No.

 I didn't have enough of a mess in canning season. 

I needed to can beets just to make it super messy. 

And then 40 pounds of chicken. 

Because I wanted some of that delicious convenience too. 

Delicious for curry soup, enchiladas, chicken soup, chicken salad......

Love canned chicken. 

Now I am canning chicken soup. But I don't use it like that. 

I make a gravy when I open one of these jars and make a Chicken Pot Pie. 

Super yum!

We reorganized a space for all of this. 

It has been so nice to have it easily accessible instead of under beds, in closets and behind the couch. 

I might be done canning.....maybe.
