    I canned chicken before, it’s really handy for a quick dinner. I often make it into chicken salad or add to soup or pasta for a protein that takes zero cooking time. Ground beef was also super handy for making into taco meat, sloppy joes, pasta dishes and more!

    My family was from the East Coast. We moved to Southern California when I was a baby. Because of weather concerns and earthquakes, we always had a lot food put up and in the freezer. I knew a Mormon family, and they had a years worth of food put up. They had theirs in actual cans, so they had this amazing pantry set-up. They had metal shoots that the cans were dropped from the top and had the oldest in the front. FIFO system. They had their food for loss of job, life changes, and other things. I guess what I am trying to say is to be prepared. We have no idea how things are going to play out. Inflation has been tough for most of America. BTW, I love your notebook and how you have it set up. As the years go by, it will be nice to sit down and look back to see your priorities at the time, how much you planted, the success rate, working on your home, land, and other thoughts. A visit down memory lane.

    Canned meat is great especially venison to make it into a gravy and have the meat gravy over mashed potatoes, one of my favorite meals my mom made as a young girl chicken for salads and chicken salad sandwich. You use your pressure canner and add the meet to jars and tsp salt for quart let it get to pressure cook 90 minutes other meats for shredded beef tacos etc. tons of uses 😊

    I'm SOOOOOO glad you told people to not stress about “doing” all the things! I get so mad at the interweb bullies telling folks they're wasteful because they don't utilize something in the way they might. And I mean “might” because most of the bullies are just flapping their lips anyway. So please, EVERYONE, stop letting anyone make you feel guilty about what you do or don't do for your family. Do your best and let them worry about their own stuff. You're doing what's best for you and that's all that matters. God bless you ALL!!! 💜

And saved me jars for things I actually need to can. And my chickens were stoked for the snacks! I was able to clean up and not wake up to a kitchen filled with dirty dishes to deal with the next morning & that was worth it to me😊 maybe someday I’ll take the time to make more corn cob jelly, but this year isn’t the year for me to put extra on my plate.

    I agree with you about bread and butter pickles! They are the best kind! I also use the same brine recipe for pickling asparagus. I can’t say I share your enthusiasm for the smell of sweet corn in the canner, though. I find it quite unpleasant. However, I do enjoy the finished product! I hope you find a recipe for baked beans you like. Most recipes I’ve found call for way more sugar than seems necessary. One of my friends makes baked beans in her roaster with six cups of dry beans, and seven cups of sugar! They are delicious, but that’s way too much sugar!

      @@calicocowacres you can omit the bacon if you want to. Since your hubby doesn't eat meat. But my hubby doesn't eat meat other than fish, but he says it isn't enough for him to really tell that the bacon is in there.

    That was an awesome haul from the farmers market. I'm am up to my eyeballs in tomatoes from our garden. Everyday it's a canning adventure. Working on ketchup and tomato soup. I'm so tired of washing dishes, getting dishes dirty and rinse repeat. All the big pots are out and floating around the kitchen. I made pickle relish last week which will last us a good year. I'm not a pickle person but relish we love.

      @@karenfrankland7763 I feel this! It’s a constant shuffle of dishes 😅 but it’ll be so worth it when you can step back & look at all that beautiful food (and sit the heck down for a bit, right?!😆) I made wayyyy too much relish last year so that’s definitely not on my list this year lol

      We definitely want to get more animals! We have to take things slow to make sure we don’t overwhelm ourselves because we both work full time & making CZcams videos is also a full time job, as well as other obligations. We’re slowly working towards adding on :)

    I've been enjoying watching your progress! I like using tomato cages for my zinnias, they work great! I still deadhead and cut them back some, but I don't have to worry about them falling over.

    Your garden looks amazing mickayla and its really coming along your flowers look amazing and maybe next year after you amend the soil in the cottage garden grow some cut flowers there and buy a bare root rose bush if you can find one with a reasonable price it will add that pop.of colour for the cottage garden and see if you can find a bare root grapevine or two from a local farmer in your area and grow that so you can try to make your own wine with one and eat the other I am muslim but I am interested in growing my own grape vine and I have done research on diffrent grapevines and they say that wine making grapes can be quite tart if you were to eat them and the ones you want to eat are quite sweet I live in a city and no where near a farm but I look on line for my grapevine choices so as of now I am undecided about which I want to eat since my religion prohibits we drink alcohol but I hope you find a grapevine specialist and they help you decide on which one you want to grow 😊
