preserving the fruits of our labor

Wow, just about a week since I last blogged. Dont know where the time went. However, the last 3 days have been productive. Yesterday I climbed the ladder and picked tons of apples. We have a Goodland tree and last year I didn't even know it was there. Of course, in the fall when there were apples on the ground I did happen to look up and saw a few on the tree. So this year I picked and peeled and preserved. Yes, I made applesauce. I tried 3 jars without the hot bath method and 4 jars with the hot bath. I remember my mom doing applesauce without the hot bath.
Today we went to the Morden Corn and Apple Fest. I sent my hubby to the stall to buy corn and he came out with a HUGE bag (4 doz.) of corn. I got out my vacuum sealer and froze tons of corn.
I called my kids and asked if they want some. My DD was very excited and wants a whole 4 cobs. Probably that is all DIL will take. Maybe 6....Nobody wants more than 6. OK...back to my corn.
