    Canning again!

    Nectarine-strawberry jam, and rhubarb jam!
    Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

              Pears were cheap at the store, so pears are up next.

              And, on the sour side, I got a bunch of cabbage heads for kraut!

                We just canned 12 quarts of strawberries from our garden. They were really productive this year. On the down side our sweet potatoes did very poorly. We need to lighten the soil for them next year if we want to get any harvest. The Brussel Sprouts and potatoes are still in the garden but if the weather cools as I expect it to then we will soon be harvesting them.

                  I did the pear preserves yesterday, and today I chopped and pressed krauts.

                        Yup - that's been fermenting for a week now, about another week to go on that.

                              You have to keep it under the juice. I put a large plate in there, and weigh it down with a heavy rock. Or, you could fill plastic zip-lock bags with brine solution and weigh it down with that.

                              Any stray chunks that float up should be skimmed off.

                              As long as it's under the juice, mold and bad micro-life will leave it alone because there isn't enough air in the water to support the wrong forms of life.
