I have the canner simmering on the stove right now full of odds and ends. I've been putting our leftovers into freezer bags and throwing them in the freezer. Today I had to do something with the leftover ham and decided to can it up along with the collection I had in the freezer. I'm canning everything at 10 pounds for 90 minutes, except the ham which is in pint jars. They only have to be in for 75 minutes.
I now have turkey, ham, sloppy joe, chili, and turkey and rice soup added to all the jars in the cellar. Heading down there is like going to the grocery store. It's like playing store when I was a little girl, only now I can use real food. (I'm grown up now.) I feel so blessed, and just a bit giddy.
Doesn't take much.
Be blessed.
