So, this is how we ended our Saturday. I processed apples Linda P from Portage had gifted me, while Handsome washed dishes and did cleanup.
Handsome had cleaned, cut them up and put them in the Nesco to cook down while I baked. When we finished mowing, we ate dinner and watched the first of the playoff games for the Milwaukee Brewers. That game ended at 11 pm. Then, we canned applesauce. We turned out the lights and went to bed at 1:30 am.
I'd say we're nuts, but we do have more applesauce to show for our efforts.
Nah. We're nuts.
PS. Linda collects pig knick knacks and gifted this happy soul to me, by the way. I love it.
That's the problem with preserving - bedtimes and other chores have to wait while we deal. You'll appreciate that applesauce in the winter for sure.
ReplyDeleteAre you serious?? Canning applesauce at 11 p.m., I think not. You crazy kids.
ReplyDeleteBut again it is applesauce. 🍎

Hi Shirley-
DeleteYep. That's what poor planning causes. That definitely won't happen again. You're right though. My guy sure loves his applesauce.

Hi Marilyn-
DeleteHandsome actually loves it more than I do. An occasional small bowl makes me perfectly content. Even so, it was a bit nuts to finish canning it so late at night. I'm not going to make a habit of it.
