The only thing I had to go by when I learned to can beans was pickyourown.org. I still use them! You can do it Shirley, if you follow their instructions! Thanks for stopping by!

Does a body get used to frigid weather? I don't think mine could! My prayers are with you, Jacky!

He's a blessed young man to have a mom prepare such goodies for his lunch. I think your cake looks yummy and am ALWAYS amazed and what all you've got cooking over there. Hope your birthday was special and wonderful. Have a great week!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09872753120191298033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386096058136077226.post-7416830631806710492013-12-15T05:44:44.678-08:002013-12-15T05:44:44.678-08:00Happy Birthday!

Yes, your son is blessed not spoiled to have a mom that cares enough for him to do what you do. I have never canned dry beans. Believe it or not, it is on my bucket list. I looked at some pinterest ideas for doing this - so thanks. Maybe on this - what I am sure will be - Long Winter in Wisconsin....try to can some. I love beans! I went for a walk the other day - it was 10 degrees - that was nice considering the day before was -8 or so with windchill of -20..... We want to start cross country skiiing - I bought 2 pairs at an auction this summer. Now we need the right size boots. No, I'm not ready for Christmas - we have the wedding on Jan. 1st too!!! I'm trying to stay calm - pray for me.

Just a quick question-and don't laugh, but when you put the vinegar in the water to prevent the white film, does it make the house smell like vinegar?MamaHenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12933602709751520328noreply@blogger.com
