canning and cleaning

My neighbor is doing ME a favor! I decided to can today adn needed celery for the BBQ sauce. I knew she had to run the little ones to preschool so I called to see if she'd pop in the grocery at in the small town (2 blocks away at most) and grab me some. Turns out she's running into the big town (shocking, I know) and said that she'd just get it at Meijer. Fine. Then I realized I was going to make a quadruple batch of stuffed shells and had no spinach! So I called to see if my personal grocery shopper would get me some of that as well!ROTFL!

So I'm getting my canning, dusting, bathrooms and several dinners done (nice for soccer nights) today. And I'm going to add honey to the BBQ sauce. I know that you can can w/it. I"m just hoping that it doesn't mean that I need to PRESSURE can it. It's still got vinegar so I"m voting no, but we'll see. I'm going to ask around online. I can always can it and recan them later if necessary. I just want it done and the mess cleaned up right now. This is the last of my canning, too.

I need to plug Mat too. He is an AWESOME help this year w/the canning! He LOVES to chop--HAVE AT IT!LOL It frees me up to get other things done.
