    WHAT ARE YOU CANNING TODAY?

    Pressure cooker? Or canner? If you have the right weight on it and it jiggles or spins or does whatever that weight is supposed to do it is at pressure. A weak seal will "blow" and you will have steam coming out from around the lid.

    Feed and food prices are supposed to skyrocket again

    Mice will chew through the plastic. I have 2 heavy plastic trash cans with holes chewed through the lids. I bit the bullet and paid $30 each for some metal trashcans. The mice are getting desperate now. They are trying to steal feed out of the buckets as we are pouring it in.
