As he said:
A previous weekend's effort was Spiced Peach Butter, Sliced Peaches in light syrup, Raspberry-Peach Jam, Dill Pickles, and Bavarian-style Sauerkraut (green cabbage with caraway seeds and white wine).
What have y'all made this year?
That 20lbs of red cabbage came in the form of only 3 heads - I've never seen ones so big (they were a foot in diameter, I kid you not). It's going to become my favorite Red Wine Sauerkraut!What do you do with 75 lbs of tomatoes, 20lbs of red cabbage and some left over cucumbers?
15 qts of spaghetti sauce
7 pts hot salsa
7 pts mild salsa
14 pts pizza sauce
4 pts sweet/hot pickles
3 gallons sauerkraut
We're almost done for the year!!

I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

Great job! That's a demonstration of making the most of your home grown produce if I ever saw it! Takes me back to the bad old days of being trapped in the kitchen with my Mom and sisters in the fall to assist with canning... I wanted to be outside with my buddies playing football, baseball, or just rolling around in the dirt! SC, I hope your kids will be engaged in the canning operations as they get old enough to help out, I think it's important to teach kids about preserving food and growing your own. I didn't like the canning part of the harvest season as a kid because it cut into my play time but I sure enjoyed eating the rewards! Let hard work be its own reward. Work hard and the rewards will come to you!

I do not know. Something like this is what came to my mind.

Not all pictured as it doesn't all fit on that shelf.

The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

Every year I say I'm going to can my tomatoes, and every year I find an excuse not to and eat tomatoes morning, noon, and night till their gone. Respect for the fine job
