Did my first "big" canning session this weekend! Bought 40# of blueberries and after cleaning/freezing most of them I made a batch of jam. Used 2 lbs blueberries and 1 lb sweet cherries plus some cinnamon. Boy did it turn out good!
Also pickled some gingerroot - hoping we will like that in our stir fries, maybe even a bit in meatloaf to jazz it up!
You'll see from pics that it took every inch of counter and table space to dry all those blueberries!

And that Tango was very interested in the whole process!

Tired as I was, hearing those jars pinging as I took them out of the canner made me smile!
