canning



October what a good month for canning...Our garden is all through producing now and I've canned or frozen all we want and need for the winter...Love this time of year....and love to look into my pantry and see all we have and then enjoyment our efforts...Another crop canned and ready for use....






Tomatoes again were frozen for tomato soup....







This year was a lot of firsts for me with my canning...I put up some Anaheim peppers....they will be good with my Mexican dinners....

I preparing my raspberries for the freezer...I picked them, picked out the bad ones...and froze them on a cookie sheet so they won't stick together...

I now take the frozen raspberries and put them into freezer bags and zip them up for later use....I can now make jelly/jam in the winter...
or have them over ice cream...

Pepper Jam again was something new I made this year...boy, does everyone love it...something different and the peppers are out of our garden.


Pickled Beets with onions....can't wait for Thanksgiving...I used little button beets this year...I think I liked canning them better than the big ones...prettier in the jar too...






Nothing like having canned peaches for the winter time...
they are always so good...love them with cottage cheese..
