While I'm certainly nowhere near the most prolific poster, Google Groups
shows I first posted here in July, 2005. So I haven't just arrived.
And I rarely read your posts, since you come across as a know-nothing
blowhard.
Take a look at the paragraph of yours above. Somehow you've deluded
yourself into thinking I've claimed I'm some of farmer, and someone who has
canned "tons and tons" of food. I've never claimed either.
Our small garden patches contain a total of about a dozen tomato plants, and
a dozen hot pepper plants. I also have a few herb plants.
I don't generally can in any great quantity, but I do can a fairly wide
variety of foods. Salsas, jams, and jellies mostly, although I've done
fruits, veggies, soups, and meats, too.
If there was some reason why I'd respect you enough to care what you think
of me, I might be willing to post some pictures. Of course, if you're not
willing to take pictures of the ribbons I've won at the county fair as
proof, I wonder why you'd consider pictures of my tomato plants, or canned
foods, or kitchen as proof.
But then as I said, I don't care what you think of me. I've forgotten more
about food preservation than you've ever known, and I've forgotten damn
little.
