Well, the first batch of roasted chili peppers was a little hotter than I like, although Elery thought they were good, so I roasted a second batch using more mild peppers and fewer of the red/ripe hot ones. This batch was milder, so 3 half pints and 2 quarter pint of those as well as 7 quarts of Christmas Lima beans and I think that's the canning for this year unless I find a great deal on apples or need to free up more freezer room for beef.

I stretch it right out to the end, LOL. Actually, I just dug/pulled about 90 leeks and I have a couple hundred heads of garlic left to deal with. Those will both be sliced and dehydrated for future use. I've already dehydrated about a bushel of sweet peppers, I use a lot of them. I have some pepper slices in the freezer for fajitas and such but because we raise 25 chickens a year, process a whole steer, buy a pig from a neighbor, put at least one deer in there, the freezer space is at a premium. My Granddaughter's boyfriend likes to hunt so he has gifted me with about 30 goose breasts. My nephew brought me a big salmon. With corn and berries and an occasional pie crust or bag of cookie dough, my freezer room is spoken for and I have FOUR freezers!

Thanks for all the sign ups. Looks great. The months without anyone signed up are not all in a row and that's a good thing.
