Her canning is the only good memory I have of the witch- she made it clear she didn't like me because I was too much like my mom (and yes, my parents were married at the time) and the feeling was more than mutual.

She spent the winter giving me jars of homemade tomato sauce and pasta sauce, homemade salsa and pickles. This year we had planned on doing a garden together and getting some canning done but the weather here in the Northeast has been terrible. The cucumbers are not growing, and all the tomatoes we planted got the blight because of another neighbor's tomatoes that already had them...:( I do hope to learn to can a few things this fall before it is too late and this kit would be a wonderful way to get me to start after such a disappointing gardening season so far.<br /><br />micaela6955 at msn dot comMichele P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12378360564649821012noreply@blogger.com
