My Other Palette

Weekend Canning Projects!

On Friday, I ventured into
Attempting to make Jelly!

~

and ended up with
Apple Rosemary Jelly Syrup

I tried a recipe that said if I simmered the apples,
peelings and seeds, I wouldn't have to use pectin,
because apples contain natural pectin.
I was a bit mislead, because I later found out
that if I had used sour apples (i.e. Granny Smith),
it would have worked.Oh Well!
Although I can't detect any Rosemary flavor,
I have some awesome apple syrup for pancakes!
And isn't it a beautiful clear honey color?!!!

Then, Saturday,

I pressure canned green beans and turnip greens. 

I also picked up a case each of yellow squash and zucchini.

No! I'm not gonna can these! They are going in the freezer.

I may bake a few loaves of zucchini bread while I'm at it!

And, of course, I came home with 10#s of McIntosh Apples.

I may try the apple jelly thing again.  Maybe!

I will finish these tasks before

the end of next week ...

I hope!  I must! 

I have venison waiting to be put up! 

Thanks to the Great Hunter!

Oy Vey!
