I was in the middle of starting a business, planning new house construction, and then a relative got down and I had to spend a lot of time out of town. My garden really suffered. A box garden would definitely help with the weeding. Now, to work on all the other factors! Sigh.lizzybaxterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05560075141830422842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603192921512857639.post-12889037716411739052015-07-14T20:14:22.028-05:002015-07-14T20:14:22.028-05:00Tamara go to the right side of the blog and look u...Tamara go to the right side of the blog and look under labels.

My mother passed with an entire garage full of canned goods in her 70's and still canning. I do not intend to be my mother. O Wise one's mother died with 1 jar of canned beans left that she refused to eat because it was the last jar that she had left that her dead husband and she had canned together. She was 84 and he had been dead for almost 15 years. I hope to be somewhere in between.the canned quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08161381921874364319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603192921512857639.post-3862711641833463692015-07-08T17:04:57.054-05:002015-07-08T17:04:57.054-05:00Thanks and good to hear from you two!

I wonder if you'll plan on putting up enough food to eat for the two of you from now on or if you are going to cut out the canning bit continuing on in your downsize/cutting back goals. I seem to remember you having plenty of beans and canned goods to hold you over this year and you'll continue in the future? <br /><br />Glad all is going so well for you!
