AN OLD FASHIONED SKILL

CANNING
       Daughter Katherine moved her mother when she said one of her great memories of childhood was the aroma, sound and sight of her mother canning tomatoes.  Lana learned from her mother and so the tradition continues. Our eldest
Kristin says she remembers summer naps hearing the canning jar lids pop sealed.
       Katherine and friend Dennis rounded up tomatoes and with Lana's assistasnce created sauces, juice and canned tomatoes.

       It is a labor intensive process.  A stop action is helpful to see what is in the blur.




      Who knew that as Californians an old Indiana tradition would be carried on.  Including the use of some Ball jars!
        BTW, I have plans for some of those sauces.
         See you down the trail.
