i just love the canning season.every year i wait for the ontario peaches. i love the fruit from there. no other peach could compare with those from ontario. they are soooo sweet and sooo juicy. i envy the ladies who live there and do canning with them. i canned tomatoes and made jelly from the cherries there are in my back yard. then a little older man brought me a 5 gallon pail of granny smith apples and a 5 gallon pail of some other apples. do not know what i am going to do with all of them. thought i would freeze some for pie, crisp and cobbler also for apple cake. make some apple sauce, make apple and saskatoon jam, also some apple and rhubarb jam.and i love fruit made out of the granny smith apples.do beet pickles and beet soup.and a couple more things and if winter will be as cold as they say it will ,i will be set. now i would like to thank all you wonderful ladies for your ideas and what you are canning.enjoy looking at all the goodies.thank you thank you.
I have also done some fruit and jams & pickles. I don't know about Ontario peaches.. .. but our B.C. peaches were sublime this year! It must have been the HOT summer! Unfortunately my tomatoes are not doing as well this year...where we are we had rain, then very hot, and then a LOT of rain. :-( Oh well.
We will still have plenty to eat even if they are smaller... and they do taste better than those from the supermarket.
Hugs & ** to all. It is great to share!
