ReplyDeleteBoy does this bring back memories! In my mind I'm 6 again, and I'm watching my grandma can yellow beans. All those quart jars in and out of the pressure cooker, then all lined up on the counter top. The "pop" of the canning lids as the jars seal. Thanks for this!

What a great color. Do they taste more like green or yellow or do they have a flavor all their own?
Patrice, What a nice memory. Do you know Greg Brown's Canned Goods song?
I put the lyrics on my blog a while back:
