Gardening, canning, pickling and everything related

wdaly just saw the picture. Wow that was a heck of a hail storm. Hopefully the garden was the only thing damaged.
cdavis Unfortunately, the house and shop both took a beating. Looks like new roofs, windows, and siding on both. Could have been a lot worse. Glad the Suburban was in the garage.

Your discussion on lids had me thinking to my Mom back when she was canning. I know she used the modern rings and lids but she also had some really old time metal metal screw-on lids with a white glass insert on the inside and you used them with a rubber gasket between the lid and the jar.
Anyone else remember those old style canning lids?processhead I have some too, but we just put dry stuff in them as the gaskets pretty much wore out long ago. They are nice & interesting.

It’s finally raining here, our first measurable rain in almost four months. Not normal for Western Washington where moss is our state flower.

Tex_77 This is going to be my next project, make spaghetti sauce now and I think I can make the pizza sauce with just changing a few ingredients.
