Almost done...

It seems that as fast as I get these cabinets filled with jars of food preserved for the winter and coming spring months, they begin to empty!  So, knowing I still have 2 cases of pears coming in to can (which will go on the top shelf where the empty jars are currently stored on the left-most cabinet), here is the otherwise completed canning for this year :)

I had planned to do a bit more on the preserves (jams, jellies, and syrups) cabinet, but ran out of jars and berries, lol, so I guess that's done as it is for this year.

And just because it was cute, I snapped some extras with kiddos being sweet and creative with their lincoln logs... (now if I could just get pictures of their rooms when they are actually super clean!  Daddy's birthday is coming up, so I'm recommending that they make him colored pictures or cards, and have super clean bedrooms for his birthday surprise :)  *I* get to make a plethora of pies this weekend (tradition for his birthday, "pie is it's own foodgroup" as far as he is concerned, after all! :)

 

 

 

Older kids are reading or working on school, and I didn't want to distract them from their work with the flash of the camera - we'll get more pictures of them later. :)
