It is that time of year... bottling!! Growing up, we bottled something almost every year and it was something I really learned to enjoy!! Plus, it saved us money which of course appealled to me too! So, I thought this year since T and I just bought our new house which had plenty of space for our garden that we would plant an extra large garden so we could bottle! I don't think Tren realized what he was getting himself into when he married me ;)
We started off with beets and salsa about a month or so ago! We were hoping to bottle more beets than we did but I guess we underestimated how many beets we should have planted LOL Now we know better for next year! The beets were pretty easy and it went fast!
Our garden
The salsa took a litte bit more time than the beets! There's a lot more choppin to do and cleaning the seeds out of the peppers took awhile!
T was pretty excited to get started ;)
The final product!!!
Geech (cat) and I were exausted after bottling! Tren was sweet to get a picture of me slacking while he was finishing up :) But, in my defense, I had worked the night before and came right home and we started bottling, so I was pretty darn tired!
