When I did my first batch of tomatoes I had that problem. All the water boiled out. Make really sure your seals are set on good and hot and tighten those bands. Are you leaving enough "head space" in the jar?

Hoping your neck gets better. :hugs

the xrays didn't show anything other than what was seen before; so they are thinking a pinched nerve. :he muscle relaxers and heat
on a better note I got 2 gallons of okra cut up and froze today. It is a nice feeling to be running out of room to put everything. I still have pears and pecans to put up, and my fall garden of okra, squash and green beans and melons

Okra :sick Sorry but I think the stuff is gross. K, however, has a minor love affair with the little green things.

So sorry that there isn't anything that they can do to help you. Hope that the muscle relaxers and heat do the trick. Congrats on getting all your yummies canned. ;) Take care.

:hit on your neck, but at least they didn't find anything horribly wrong :hugs (a pinched nerve is hopefully fixable w/o surgery)

LOVE okra!! especially fresh from the garden (this was my first year). It's so much better than frozen from the store :sick

My ex's boss said he was going to give us (FREE) an upright freezer that he's not using anymore - that would be sooo great. I ran out of room this year from the stuff from the garden and since I was new to okra I ended up giving most of it to the chickens. Next year will be a whole different story. Hopefully, I'll have a freezer full of it (and maters, and squash, etc, etc.)

I have two fridge/ freezers and they are both full between rabbits and veggies have had the nerve to add my chickens to it yet but I need another freezer soon for deer meat and more rabbits. Next year we are going to do the aquaponics too with a garden above and tilapia, maybe catfish too.
