What I did on my summer vacation
 
Really this is just what I keep handy to cook from... The main stash is in the pantry but it's too dark in there to get a pic (I tried).

Anybody else 'puttin' up'?

98 ears of corn.
Butchered & froze 1/2 of a 900lbs Highland steer.
Green beans.
Zucchini.

Most of it went to the freezer, noT much canning this year. Still have a lot of grape jelly we (my wife) canned last year tho.

Did you raise the highland? I love their look... I have one very shaggy dun Dexter that almost looks like a Highland X.

Congrats on the corn... we got a huge infestation of ear worms this year and only salvaged some. Thankfully a good friend shared from her abundance and I froze enough for the year.

tomatoes, salsa, corn relish and dill pickles.

but since this is the first year I've ever canned, I think that's pretty good :)

Very, very good for a first year. My first year I made pickles and then was afraid to eat them after someone at work said 'you can get botulism from home canned food'... Scared me to death!:eek:

Awww... that happened to me last year... So disappointing after all the work of planting. :(

Well, what I did on summer vacation is not that important. What is important is to make a trip to see Titus2Woman, Margies3, and Shag. (Sorry, Timmy, can't stand the smell of beer, much less the taste. Of course I've never tasted it, so I guess that sounds like a "liberal statement!") Boy that would be some good eating, visiting these three! :icecream

And I'm not too far from Titus2Woman. Can't tell you where Titus 2. You might figure out who I am and where I live if I say too much! :happydance

Really, you're also in the area? Wow.

Been thinking, we should name this place Houston Friends Forum. Notice I did not say Houston's Friends Forum.
