So in my busy and crazy life as a mom of four....what mom is not crazy busy. I have found a need to keep up on my food storage. I have been working on getting my two year supply and it is coming along. My biggest issue (well there is a couple issues) one is using what I have. So I have started getting more of our "comfort foods" or foods that my family is comfortable eating and rotating through them each year. I always hit the sales but have made myself once I bring it home rotate it. I have also learned to bottle. Something I never thought I would do because it was so not cool. But now yes I am an uncool mom who bottles food and I love doing it!! I have now bottled a little of everything. The things my family love the most is of course the fruit, salsa and chicken. Yes, we go through allot of chicken and LOVE IT!! Even my Sayler will eat it ( a HUGE plus). The other big issue is finding recipes that go along with my food storage. So I sat down and thought of what my family liked and came up with my own.  But I wanted to share.... I found and easier way to bottle my fruit ( peaches and pears) I do not cook the juice separately. I just poor the sugar in with the cut fruit - I only do 1/4 cup because I don't like allot of sugar- and then I fill it up with water. Run my lids under hot water, screw on the lids and steam. Eazy Peazy!!!! Now I really don't mind bottling.
