No Jar Left Behind - 2010

This year my Canning partner-in-crime Jenn and I decided to instigate a new philosophy of No Jar Left Behind. It was our goal to fill every jar we owned with something yummy! Last year I came extremely close, this year I was on track to accomplish my goal when I hit a major speed bump. A Hysterectomy in early October is definitely something that will take you out of the canning game. Fortunately, I already had the majority of it done so it wasn't a total loss. Below is a list of all of the yummy things I was still able to make and have the pleasure of serving my family in the many, many meals to come!


  • Pears
  • Raspberry Syrup
  • Chocolate Raspberry Sundae Topper
  • Peaches
  • Tomato Peach Salsa
  • Peach Salsa
  • Peach BBQ Sauce
  • Sweet and Sour Sauce
  • Tomatoes
  • Spaghetti Sauce
  • Cherry Pie Filling
  • Cherry Jelly
  • Strawberry Syrup
  • Carrot Cake Jam - (I actually didn't make this, my awesome friend Jenn made this for me since she knew it was on my list and I wouldn't get to it. Talk about an awesome friend!)

Just for kicks and giggles I decided to add a list of the nummy things I canned last year as well. Since I didn't really document it anywhere back then. It was the first year that I really got into canning as an adult. What was I waiting for! Next year I plan to also list how many quarts/pints/ jelly jars etc. I make as well. That info is more for my benefit than anything. Anyhow, on to the list!
