A wonderful Thanksgiving here and I got alot accomplished too.
I cooked a ham, packaged all the meat and boiled the bones for broth, and then pressure canned the broth. We got 6 bags of ham in the freezer and 6 jars of ham broth.
I cooked a turkey, boiled those bones and canned that broth too. After dinner we packaged up the leftovers and got 4 bags of turkey meat and 10 jars of turkey broth.
Rob peeled too many potatoes again, he does that every year. LOL!! Apparently he needs supervision when you hand him a potato peeler. After dinner we packaged up the leftover potatoes and we got 10 ziploc bags of those too.
I also managed to get my corn cob jelly and corn cob syrup done today too. The jelly we just left plain and to the syrup I added vanilla nut extract. Everyone tried it and said it is delicious, so now we need to make some pancakes and try it out.
Menu for this week is
Sunday - leftovers
Monday - turkey
Tuesday - split pea soup
Wednesday - hot turkey sandwiches
Thursday - fish
Friday - leftovers
Saturday - spaghetti squash
Gratitudes
