I am a bit envious of your outdoor propane cooker; surely would be nice for my cloth dying projects. I know you like not heating up the kitchen with all that hot water. As Henny mentioned, your beans are almost flawless. We have had lots of trouble this year with Japanese beetles. I refuse to use chemicals so it has been a tedious business of keeping them picked off and dropping them into a bowl of soapy water. I think often about you and your husband and hope everything is going well.Hill Top Posthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12417478558713036325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-70856332941079671892019-07-20T11:43:54.856-07:002019-07-20T11:43:54.856-07:00You've been as busy as a little bee! and will ...You've been as busy as a little bee! and will have special things from your jars for cold winter meals. And what a smart way to use the canner; keeps all that heat out of the kitchen. <br />The flower is Liatris.

They ...I remember my Grandma cannning dilly beans. They were SO good. When I had a garden I blanched and foze mine as that's how Dennis preferred them. Funny, when we prefer store canned over store frozen beans, but the opposite when I was canning/freezing them. The tomatoes look yummy too. I used to can about 50 quarts of tomatoes every year when the kids lived at home. Now, I don't can at all because of my back. Maybe someday I'll be able to get back to that as we miss that home-canned freshness of chili sauce, zucchinni relish and tomatoes.<br />Love the sign, it's oh, so true!<br />Blessings,<br />BetsyBetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-32580159838565580872019-07-20T10:53:28.872-07:002019-07-20T10:53:28.872-07:00Your green beans look marvellous and so does your ...Your green beans look marvellous and so does your pickle!

It reminds me of my grandmother’s shelves lining the basement stairs. There were always rows and rows of jars there from her garden of summer. I never appreciated what she did to get those jars ready to be enjoyed over colder months. They were very self-sufficient in the early 1900s.

Whenever I'm in the garden, pruning, weeding, watering or just checking things out...my mood softens and I feel good. :) That's a very smart idea to do your canning outside. Is it an expensive set up with the propane burner? I've always thought about doing that, but I want to wait until we buy our place first. When I was doing my strawberry jam the other day, boy oh boy did it get humid in the kitchen...even with the oven fan going!Rain https://www.blogger.com/profile/14377719049819222133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-87505069931573268062019-07-20T05:13:24.760-07:002019-07-20T05:13:24.760-07:00You've had a very productive week.

I need to see if I can find some reasonable priced beans and make some dilly beans too. That and dilly carrots are a good way to get extra veggies into me. I have had a few beans off my little patch but not enough to can. The embroidered towels look so pretty above your canned goods! It was 97 degrees my phone said today but said it felt like 107.
