Peaches, Tomatoes and Salsa, OH MY!









We did it. Jade is now an official member of the crazy canning queens club. With Tawna's help this weekend, we canned 66 quarts of beautiful peaches, 17 pints of salsa (we ate 2 pints before we were done) 22 quarts and 4 -1/2 gallons of tomatoes. I am posting these pics for Jade. We had fun, solved all the world's problems, and even got a little sleep after all was said and done. She did a great job making the salsa, Nana's recipe of course, and will be posting that on the Cooks in Nana's Nook blogsite soon. Lovin' those jars on the shelf. Nothing better than that.

You girls are amazing....I am still feeling extremely left out here in Calgary, Everyone and their Grandma...even my Grandma is canning! I can't even find wheat to make bread with...never mind that Alberta's a producer of wheat! The jars are gorgeous! Nice work!

Looks like a busy, yet productive weekend!
I just did my first fruit canning. But I didn't do nearly as much as you did....maybe one day!
