The Aromas of Autumn

Hello darlings,

Falling in love with fall and all that comes with its
harvest.  We have been like little squirrels, storing
for winter.  We canned and freeze some of our
local fruits, and we loving every minute of it. 
The apples are delicious and the peaches are
mouth watering.  Very tasty indeed.

My dear husband busy at the milling process.




Do you like to have some apple sauce?

Almost ready for canning.

Delicious Apple Sauce!

Finally!


The apple sauce has been canned, now let's
can some juicy peaches!

Getting a good bath in hot water to be able
to remove the skin easily.

VERY mouth watering!

I love them!


Very pleased with the results


We also canned carrots

Strawberry Jam and...

Cranberry Jam

We reused the tomato sauce jars,
CLASSICO (Atlas,Mason jars)

We give Thanks for all our Blessings!


Wishing you Harvest Blessings!

XOXO

    Wow what a great variety of treats! I am trying my hand at canning for the first time. We have grapes in the backyard so I made some grape juice the other day and today I made some grape jelly. Would like to try some tomato sauce next, we'll see.
    Enjoy your goodies!

    Dearest Wendy,

    My goodness, you both have been very industrious! Looks all delicious and you did it in a very smart way. Recycling those jars is a great idea. More women should do this in order to make ends meet during this downward economy.
    Love to you,

    Mariette

    Wendy, your caning looks delicious and you have it displayed beautifully. I used to can, but mine never look that good. I love the mosaics. Wishing you harvest blessings as well.

    All your canned goodies look wonderful!! My nephew gives us canned pickles every Christmas. Strawberry jam is my favorite. I can almost taste the canned peaches. What a special thing for you to do.
