Tis the season!

Summer is the best time for making freezer jams with all the wonderful fruits out there!  Buy your fruit in bulk and make some jam to last all winter long. You can go to the store and pick out a box of pectin (my favorite is Sure-Jell http://www.walmart.com/ip/Kraft-Baking-Canning-Premium-100-Natural-Sure-Jell-Fruit-Pectin-1.75-oz/10292609 ) they give you a reciepe in the box and how much fruit to by for the certain type of jam you wish to make.  Or here is a great site to show you step by step what you need to do.

No more Weekly deals...

I have decided to not keep doing the weekly deals and to focus more on the Cannery Items.  President Davies is wondering why our ward does not feel the need to prepare?  I have tried very hard to get the information to you,  if I can do anything different PLEASE let me know.   No one in our ward has ordered anything from the Cannery in about a year! Yes, a Year! 

Please go through your Food Storage and lets focus on building it up.  Our next Cannery date is SEPTEMBER 2.  This is what will be available....

  White Rice

  Sugar

  Wheat (Red and White)

  Oats (Quick and Regular)

  Onions

  Potato Flakes

  Refried Beans

  White Flour

Please make a list of what you need and lets get an order in, in September!

Thank you Serene Ward!
