....oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Then again, that's canning about 20 different things, which probably won't happen, so I won't need quite so much produce. Besides, I'm poor - I can't afford this much produce anyways, Farmer's Markets or not! I also really need to find a resource that tells me what's in season when, because I have no clue.
Everyone needs a hobby.
I'm such a nerd.
