Done, done, DONE!

All the apples are worked up, canned, and the kitchen is clean!!! We're through canning for the year. Yay!!! :)

Over the past three weeks, we put up three bushels of apples for Peter and myself, and we got 46 pints of applesauce, 25 quarts of applesauce, 21 pints of apple butter, 5 pints of apple jelly, and 14 pints of apple pie filling. My pantry is full, which is so gratifying.

Altogether, we did 2 bushels of apples for Mom, she made applebutter, applesauce & apple jelly. We did 1 1/2 bushels today alone.

We're so stinkin' tired, but it's a good tired, after a very productive day. We should sleep well tonight!! :)
