Making Memorial Day Memorable

This just feels right....

I don't know if I really like canned pears, but it just feels right putting these up in my pantry. And I know my mother-in-law would be completely thrilled because up until the last couple of years, she spent the better part of every summer canning, drying, making jam, or fruit leather. It was just what she did and who she was. I understand just a little now, the satisfaction she received from her labor. So here's to you Grandma Brink....and if all else fails, I know Lily will love them!
