O.K. not really the cannery but close enough. My sister's and I got together and canned some of our goods we picked up from the cannery a few weeks ago. We had so much fun together for a few hours, canning and doing something productive for our families and our food storage! It was much easier than going to the cannery. (for me at least). I didn't have to find a babysitter for 4 hours and I didn't have to wear a hair net either! I borrowed our stake's canning machine and got some tips from my "neighbor canning guru", Tamara, and we had a great morning together.
Don't get me wrong, I am grateful for the cannery and how easy it makes it for us to get our houses in order, I just loved being able to do it in my own home.
grinding wheat to be made into bread.
The kids played video games, jumped on the tramp, played in the sandbox and ate the dropped apple slices that didn't make it in the cans.
You can't do that at the cannery either!

It is much more fun at home. I am sure it is just as sanitary. The yummiest food comes out of home kitchens, where hairnets are not worn! Good for you guys! I am glad to see you blogged!
YAY! I must have had the canner a few weeks before you. It's such a relief to know you have some done, eh?
It's a good thing we have a little red hen in the family. What would the "Black sheep" do without you? (k so that didn't make a lot of sense but what does when it comes from me?)
hahahahaha. thats cute. i liked the picture of emmie giving khloee an apple. i liked it.
I think it is so much more fun canning at home with family. Sounds like you were busy, and the end result is knowing that you are a little more prepared.
