In posting this I realize it is not going to be the most entertaining and 'fun' post of all time, but it is a mile stone for me and I am proud!! Most of you know that in the past year Todd and I have been focusing on food storage, and trying to put together our supply. Well this past week I have experimented with a new form of food storage, bottling!!! It always seemed hard and time consuming so I just ignored it, but no more. From here on out you can call me Bottling Brittany!!!
My good friend Ashley and I went in on 40 pounds of chicken and took to the bottling!! It turned out to be surprisingly easy and super gratifying!! Next on my list is beef and then fruits, jams, and salsa!! Watch out bottling world, I have arrived!!!

40 pounds looked like a lot before hand, but once we bottled them it turned out to be not so much. We finished with about 22 pint jars each. So Todd and I can split 1 1/2 chicken breast once every other week for a year!! I think I might do it again, just to get some more in our storage!!

It kinda looks like a biology experiment, but I swear its a chicken breast!! They say it will last up to 10 years on the shelf like this. A lady in our ward opened one after 13 years and it was still really good.
This was so easy, I promise, so all of you get out there and start bottling!
