I am so glad that I learned how to can when I did. Many a time those jars sitting on my shelf, came in handy when times were a little tough.I used to look at all my sparkling jars and think that it was like looking at art. I'm glad that many of you had the same experience....kindred spirits, you know :)Balishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17298193443371503407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1526821574480507893.post-72024137509483984982010-07-21T00:35:56.176-05:002010-07-21T00:35:56.176-05:00Where has my passion gone for doing things like th...Where has my passion gone for doing things like this? I wonder about that...and it isn't getting any better. I plump the pillows..feed the birds, water the plants, fill the fountains in the yard, sweep here, sweep there...but as for the canning, the crafting...and now even the baking that I so loved...I no longer push myself to do it. Where has my passion for this sort of thing gone? I wonder if it went with Patrick. :) Still, I love to read about it..and I loved this post!<br />I hope Joe is doing well. And you are doing well?<br />MonaWsprsweetly Of Cottageshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17990765326246470929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1526821574480507893.post-69217115493513084852010-07-20T16:56:14.129-05:002010-07-20T16:56:14.129-05:00Balisha, like you and Judy - I must be a sister al...Balisha, like you and Judy - I must be a sister also!!

We even canned sausage links.<br />I use to make the seven day pickles and also freezer pickles which we loved because they were so crisp.Lonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07060003333138052194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1526821574480507893.post-26369776219838518502010-07-20T10:34:06.096-05:002010-07-20T10:34:06.096-05:00Balisha,

I remember one time when I was going to try and make soap and my mother-in-law thought I was going to poison my twin girls! I think she always feared what I was going to do next when we lived on the farm and the girls were little. I am keeping your recipe and next year I am planning a garden. I don't have my canner anymore but I have all winter to find one in a flea market. I absolutely loved canning and freezing stuff from the garden. Hope Joe is feeling much better by now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1526821574480507893.post-61928319059168675092010-07-20T08:47:11.202-05:002010-07-20T08:47:11.202-05:00Nice post..very descriptive!I can smell the spices...Nice post..very descriptive!I can smell the spices...(:sunny smileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07214425044850350417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1526821574480507893.post-37742384091348908792010-07-20T08:21:24.619-05:002010-07-20T08:21:24.619-05:00Oh I got to bookmark this recipe, thanks.

It was a lot of work in a hot, steamy kitchen. Got all my recipes from my Mom. She had a wonderful recipe for dilled green beans. They were still crisp but had somewhat the flavor of a dill pickle.<br />MarnieRoses and Lilacshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07121676379580186489noreply@blogger.com
