I'd love to do soups and beans to save room in my freezer.<br /><br />Last year, I did tomatoes in my friends' backyard over a propane-fired camp stove. So much quicker (and cleaner) than doing them in the house. I think we'll do the same thing in the driveway this year.Lindsay @ EatLocal365http://eatlocal365.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356723782465446786.post-72276808582755668482012-03-12T18:09:00.172-04:002012-03-12T18:09:00.172-04:00I've got a 16 quart I think (?)

I really like having the pressure canner- I do a lot of dried beans, chicken broth, soups and stews, convenience food that I might otherwise buy at the store. I've done some tomatoes in the pressure canner, but I've had inconsistent results, which is more about rawpacking vs hot packing I think. That and I broke a bunch of jars by placing raw-packed (cool) jars into boiling water instead of letting them come up to temp together.cyclerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10331461189944538729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356723782465446786.post-35471249377474004812012-03-12T16:10:33.237-04:002012-03-12T16:10:33.237-04:00I think we had the same day yesterday!

We were also planning to go out to Harris and hit up Blue Ribbon BBQ) until some dim memory made me check their hours on the web site--Harris is closed Sundays! Newton in general is a bit of a ghost town on Sundays--so glad I checked before we hauled all the way out there. Anyway, we ended up at Cambridge Bicycle instead (and the new Sweet Cheeks BBQ in Fenway which was terrific)--sorry that there was no spontaneous DL-1 meet-up but I think it's hilarious that you spotted another bike whose owner reads your blog!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05544085626784199782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356723782465446786.post-53341341156418628952012-03-11T22:25:07.915-04:002012-03-11T22:25:07.915-04:00That's my bike!
