The Dirt in the Farm Kitchen  
 
This time of year the house explodes with a brand new level of chaos, for it is canning season.  From out of the dusty damp basement comes my collection of giant kettles, the pressure cooker, canning racks, and millions of canning jars.  And all of it is big and none of it has an actual space to be called put away in my kitchen.  So, my kitchen, dining room, and sometimes even my living room and bathroom find themselves cluttered with canning paraphernalia.  Not that I had any Feng Shui harmony in my house to begin with, but in the Fall it's hopeless. Click here to read more.
