That's before you get into what she put by in the freezer. View Image

We'll be eating good all winter long.


Since I'm a grasshopper, it's a good thing I married an ant.

How often do you replace the lids and seals? I contemplate canning every season but always end up freezing.

Whenever we open a jar, we throw away the inner part of the lid (I assume that's what you mean by seal). As long as the outer lids aren't damaged we keep and reuse them. The missus just picked up a few boxes of lids (inner) tonight.

She cans with a pressure cooker. Those babies are sealed so tight, you need a church key to open them.

We call them rings and flats. The last couple of years they came out with reusable flats.
