As I stated before this post, this process is not sanctioned by an authority like the national Center for canning. I Pressure can it for 90 minutes, and my beans are not mushy but nice, firm and delicious. Please do what you feel like is best for your family.

I was just speaking with a few friends and there were comments that a lot of people today are always asking what others can do for them, always looking for a hand-out instead of thinking about what they could do for others.<br /><br />We are noticing more and more that when out in public, people won't even make eye contact any more for fear of offending in some manner and having it result in violence. <br /><br />I think all this should be a matter of prayer for each of our families on a regular basis and then we need to get out there and do what we can. Small things such as sending an email to someone just to let them know you are thinking of them. Taking time to wish someone a Happy Birthday. Make eye contact and smile. Pull some weeds for someone that can't. Read to the elderly in assisted living facilities that can no longer see well enough to read themselves. <br /><br />I am a firm believer in small things can change the world. My great-grandmother lived in the deep south. I remember her always being ready to hand the mailman an ice cold glass of tea or lemonade on hot summer days. It was a small thing she could still do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993125694957643062.post-39853630146983032252016-07-16T18:51:44.527-06:002016-07-16T18:51:44.527-06:00I am so going to try this.
