i've been able to do some canning this summer and that makes me happy! we went and saw my dad in portland about a month ago and he has this awesome blueberry bush in his backyard. it was there when we moved in when i was 3 or so, so....1975? sounds right. the bush is still producing mad huge blueberries. maya and i picked a bunch and brought back up here to make some blueberry jam.
i should have thought far enough ahead to take a shot of the blueberry bush, but oh well. at least i remembered to take pics of me making the jam!
dammit! bigger pot!
and the blueberry jam was done and some already given away!!
and at the beginning of the summer or so my mom brought me a couple of jars of these BITCHIN' marinated veggies. she said they were super easy to make...so i did!
i used green beans from the backyard, cauliflower, corn, cucumber, kalamata olives, onion, shallots and heirloom tomato. should be great and i hope it comes out as good as hers!
steamy mcsteamerson:
yum! so far they taste good. i'm going to let them sit a couple of months before i open them so i hope they get good and soft. mmmmm.....
