This and that...

This is one batch of each; of the Plum Butter(left) and Plum Jelly(right)
The recipe is shared on yesterday's post.

A mix and match of assorted, end of the garden veggies.
                                            Here is our plan; as to what we'll make with our mix and match veggies.
                                          I'm going to make a batch of each, with the sweet and sour sauce, as well as, the
                                           spicier sauce.
                                          Our next door neighbor blessed us with a couple of surprises yesterday, the
                                           6- half gallon canning jars below .......
                                          and an "All American" canner large enough to hold them. They had two of the
                                          All American canners and have decided they really only NEED one. Plus,
                                          if by chance they may need to borrow it back I assured them we'd loan it to       
                                          them. :o)
                                          I am going to take it to the Extension Office in the city and have the gauge tested,
                                          it's a free service. If it needs to be replace we'll replace it. :o)

Blessings for your weekend.

Beck's,
Thank you. Our apple year was last year and even though it was a bit overwhelming last Fall, we are sure blessed to have the applesauce, butter, canned apples, jelly and pie filling this year! My motto is take full advantage of your crops, because you simply never know what's going to happen next year. :o)
I''ve not been good about commenting, but we have enjoyed your pictures, especially of your colt.:o) Keep'em coming. Thanks for stopping by and chatting.

Ooh, what a wonderful "gift" from your neighbor. My hubby got me an All American canner a few years ago for a Christmas present and it is wonderful. Have fun!
