Canning Day

Our garden is producing an abundance this year.  I am grateful.  It is hard work but the benefits of fresh food later in the winter will pay off.  I have always felt that my gift is to feed people.  If I have extra I want to share.  Anyway, I put up 6 pints of salsa, 4 pints of spaghetti sauce and 12 quarts of tomatoes yesterday.  How did that affect me?  Actually I feel better from being up and moving around.  I know you get tired of hearing that but it is true.  I feel alot better when I'm moving than when I'm sitting.  I don't feel as sluggish the next day.  I may feel tired from the hard work but it is not a sugar crash but a muscle burn.  I eat less when I'm busy which helps with the diabetic numbers and with my overall energy level.
