I've really been in the mood to do some major canning again so I might start cooking up some meals in jars in the next few days! And I'm getting low on blueberry jam and strawberry/ginger ale jam so I might need to make some of those soon.
Have any of you been canning anything lately?

I'll probably be pressure canning in the next few days. I have dry beans -black, pinto, etc., that would be easier for us to use precooked in cans than dry. I've been putting it off, I have the time now, so I better do it before it gets too busy around here.

I've got several jars of canned beans too! I've canned black, pinto, kidney, garbanzo, and mixed beans. I love the convenience of having them on hand whenever I need them!

I have nothing in abundance to can right now, so I'll have to wait until the Summer.

What's your favorite things to can? Do you pressure can too or just boiling water bath?

so far just the boiling bath, though I intend to borrow my Grandmother's pressure canner this Summer. My Mother said that she no longer needs it, so I can use it!
