    Thinking about canning

    I agree here, get the Ball Blue Book. I too was afraid of canning because of all the "blow up stories" but never actually talked to any one this happined to, and if it did it was because of not paying attention. Now the more I can the easier it gets and the more I am interested. Nancy

    How much do you reuse?

    I do not reuse the lids but I do keep and reuse the rings. Before storeing the jars I remove the rings and wash them, dry them good and save for the next year. Before useing them I check each one for rust or dents and get rid of them if necessary.
