Just found your channel, great content. You said you use a food mill when you make applesauce. I used to for many years. Now I use an immersion blender, it’s quicker and so much easier. Have a blessed day!
Hi!! I would love to see a video on your canned cranberry juice!! I am going to buy a nesco electric canner because of your potato canning video, and seeing your jars of cranberry juice is making me so so so excited!!!
Hi there! I’m so glad you’re getting the Nesco canner; I hope it serves you really well 😊. I can definitely do a video on cranberry juice-it won’t be long before the stores are stocked with cranberries again. The juice is water bath canned, so it doesn’t have to be canned in the Nesco, but it can be canned in it if you stick to pints.
I’m here just to say that you are doing amazing work. Look at what you’ve preserved! …in so many different ways. Drying, freezing, canning. You are using your space and what you have available to you. I love it! Literally on just an acre of land. I just found one of your canning videos and am so excited I found your page. Wow. Killin it girl. Keep it up! I look forward to the rest of what you have to share with us on your journey.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate the encouragement l. As with anything new, it turns out things are a little harder than I expected and happen a little slower than I expected, so it feels good to hear that. I’m glad you found my channel 😊
I love your pantry shelves! Mine is much smaller. It’s mostly for me because my hubby just isn’t accepting of canned goods. If I use it in a casserole he doesn’t know it’s there so that’s ok. But he won’t eat any of my jelly or jam. I made grape jelly just for him but he only eats the store brand. 😢 this year I am just having fun with it. I made honeyed yellow tomato butter. I mix it with my yogurt. I also made some tomato soup with heirloom red, yellow and orange. He’ll be eating that 😏. I’m making tomatillo salsa next. Thanks Marta!
I’ve known a few others whose husbands were wary of canned goods. I laughed when I read that you sometimes sneak them into casseroles 😆 I’ve never heard of tomato butter. That sounds great! Best of luck with your tomatillo salsa!
Your shelves of canned goods looks so pretty! Becky from Acre Homestead uses containers in her deep freezer with strap type handles making moving and lifting the containers out easy. I don’t have that style freezer but just saw her organizing her freezer.
Yes, I know that would be better for preserving all the flavor/texture of the food. I’m buying a little bit of gear at a time, but maybe I’ll get one next year.
I am so impressed with your freezer organization.
Thanks! It's a work in progress, but I can definitely find what I need at this point.

I hadn’t thought to try an immersion blender. Thanks! Welcome to my channel 😊

Thank you! I’ll definitely check out that video. She’s so thorough; I don’t doubt she has a good system for keeping things organized.
You need to invest in a vacuum sealer for your frozen foods
Yes, I know that would be better for preserving all the flavor/texture of the food. I’m buying a little bit of gear at a time, but maybe I’ll get one next year.
Looks like you are doing very well with all of your canning, looks like you will be all stocked up soon!
Thanks! I’m planning to add a few more things, but hopefully this will see us through some dinners over the winter.
Wait ya left Texas?
Where did y’all end up @?
Oh and does it snow there and how much .
I miss the snow as I live in San Antonio, Spurs country .
I love San Antonio! It's my favorite Texas city. We were in Austin area, and now we're in Central Pennsylvania.
