Carly and I canned quite a few tomatoes the other day. I knew we would be totally busy so I put on a Rib Roast on the grill. When you have a man around the house there has to be something cooking to make them happy that's for sure.
Green tomatoes, what do you do with them?
Fry them of course
Catie had been away and wanted pork chops so I cooked these on another day, just thought I would throw it in with this post...just so.
Got that covered, now on to canning.

That night I put up 50 ears of corn. I really need to put up more than that.
I forget each year how many ears it takes to make cream style corn...It does take 7 or 8 large ears to
make a quart.
I put up 2 bushels of Dixie Lee Peas this year also.
I am going to make my first pickles tomorrow.
We have a tradition of buying our pickles from Lancaster County, PA because we love those so much but this time I am going to make my own wish me luck...
Do you can and preserve? Let us know of your traditions, we would love to hear about them.
