It's 1:30 am, and I'm waiting on my last batch of dilly beans to be done processing. I am tired, but it really does have to be done. I have 60 pounds of peaches, 40 pounds of pears, and 25 pounds of nectarines sitting on the floor of my kitchen while waiting to be processed next, not to mention the giant sack of cucumbers that are in the fridge that will soon become chunk pickles. And of course, the tomatoes are just starting to ripen, so I'll be working on tomatoey stuff before I know it. Then it will be apples.....Oh, and all of the veggies that I'll be freezing.

I'm utterly pooped thinking about it, but it is SO worth it to have all of this home grown and nutritious food available in my pantry. What are you all working on? Or has big time canning season already past in more southern regions of the country?
