This morning I put up 12 quarts and 12 pints of chicken and rice soup.
For this I use thighs and legs since DH has an aversion to dark meat, but this way he doesn't notice. What he doesn't know won't hurt him. I really don't measure anything and just go by taste. I use chicken broth, bullion, water, salt, chicken, celery, and carrots.
I made a quick run by the farmer's market and came home with corn. I kept meaning to call the guy in the paper and never got it done. I hope they have more.
It's shucked, silked, and cut off the cob. I'll deal with it tomorrow after I get two new tires for my car and pick up DH's boat from the boat doctor.
I think I'll go visit the sewing room and see if a quick project jumps out at me.

We put corn up last night. The guy in the paper (Miller) is going to have another batch of corn come off in a couple weeks--so you can still get some.
We put up a bushel..and took it all off of the cob. It's a job, but it sure taste good.
It is a job, but you're right, it sure is good.
Thanks for letting me know he's going to have more.
You amaze me Aunt Jo!!!! I am so impressed with your preserving! Now that chicken soup and spiced peaches is a dinner I often served when my children were growing up, but out of a can! Shame on me!!!

...Gosh girl, you're wearing me out over here! lol... ;o)
...All of that looks so yummy and will be especially come winter...
...Blessings... :o)
Your chicken soup and corn on the cob look so yummy. This will really be a treat this winter.
It's been a week, do we need to send a search team to find you in the kitchen? :)
All of this stuff you are canning now is likely to make me envious this winter (as if it isn't now).
Miss you Aunt Jo! Can't wait to hear about your sewing vacation!
...tap,tap,tap...Are you in there Aunt Jo? You didn't pass out in a heap of green beans or somethin' did you? ;o)...
...Just checkin' in, hope you're okay!
...Blessings... :o)
I haven't done corn yet. I am thinking of trying it as I just got a pressure canner for my birthday.
Keep up the good work.
