canning time...

I did a little canning on monday..actually, it took about 5 hours in the kitchen. Green Beans came courtesy of my mother-in-law and her enormous garden. Since I LOVE dilly beans, that's what I set out to make!

My box of prize beans...Snapped and ready for a good washing
Ready to come out of the canner

They turned out super yummy and I learned something new and fun to do!


Not trying to freak anyone out, but I got a new zoom lens for my camera and was lucky enough to find this little guy dangling from my in-laws warming shed. I was sure to stay as far from it as I could, so my new lens really came in handy! I just love playing with my camera!!
