[quote=Anonymous]What have you canned so far this summer? Anybody got tomatoes done yet? I love doing them, and we've grown enough for at least a round of sauce and a round of salsa, but they always seem like such a PITA that I put them off. So far, I've done two batches of fig lemon preserves (one from our trees, then a second round w/ store-boughts because the first round disappeared too quickly), a batch of blueberry lavender jam, and some plum jam today. Strawberries are this weekend's work. Still to go: the aforementioned tomatoes, and a 1/2 bushel of peaches, most of which will probably be bourbon vanilla peaches for gifts (SO good on ice cream!). We don't do apple picking so much now that the kids are older, but I love having apple butter when it's snowy and grey in January, so I may do a round of that and some applesauce, too. For the tradition. I can't be the only person on DCUM who does this "granny" stuff. Who else is out there? [/quote]
