Store bought are not the same! We also canned green beans, corn - which can be tricky! Occasionally it would pop open and make a hugh mess! I loved having those cans to pick from in winter. I think we miss a lot too in the comraderie and family time nowadays. I need to figure out a way to teach my grands how to do this. <br /><br />I wanted to let you know how much I love your blog. I was given a Liebster Award recently, and am suppose to pick 5 others to share it with. You are one of my 5. You can check it out here: http://www.accidentallyangela.com/2011/11/im-a-liebster-blog/<br /><br />Fun post, thanks for the memories! Hope you have a great week!

It was WWII and with everything rationed, what grew in our garden is what we would have to eat come the snow-bound days of winter. My mom kept all the canned food in the basement, everything lined up on long, long shelves. Each vegetable and fruit were stored together so we could readily find whatever mom sent us to the basement to get. How my sisters and I hated that basement and being the oldest, I was generally chosen to turn on the one sole light and grab the chosen jar. Mom even canned lard when dad butchered a pig. Nothing went to waste. Even when the war was over, she continued to can the garden. It wasn't until we moved to CA in 1956 that she quit canning. I do have to say, that I know how to can just about everything that grows. No freezers in those early canning days, so I still put things up in jars. Good memories. Well, not the basement. But the days of canning are a good remembrance.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04516228383672051397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6464957519550230481.post-60100821587024941532011-11-11T09:50:59.036-06:002011-11-11T09:50:59.036-06:00I miss my granmother's sweet pickles, she cann...I miss my granmother's sweet pickles, she canned all the time.

I grew up in Massachusetts and have terrific memories of growing up there.

Less preservatives is always better. I need to go make blueberry jam and use up all the blueberries we picked. :) <br /><br />Love your blog!<br /><br />I liked, recommended to google and followed you. Hope you won't mind and drop by mine and do the same. :) www.myunentitledlife.comDinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05716556569385067997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6464957519550230481.post-90430788289883515512011-10-27T08:37:53.102-05:002011-10-27T08:37:53.102-05:00Love this post!

I was always helping snap those green beans too!<br />I think the memories I miss most are my Christmas ones. Christmas isn't the same anymore.
