Stormy Canning Day

11.03.2013












Canning day was a huge success!  We were a little worried because it was stormy and the lights were flickering in the beginning, but the power held for us thankfully.  Lindsey (my awesome future sister-in-law, friend, and amazing cook) and I made 19 jars of salsa and 8 jars of apple butter.  Both were so delicious.  We found time to make some chocolate chip pumpkin bread too.  Lane came home from Florida in the evening and was so excited about all the food.  For dinner, Lin made butternut squash risotto with bacon and sage, yum.  We ate entirely too much, watched The Great Gatsby, and headed off to enjoy a nice food coma.  Successful Saturday, I have to say!
