Fresh Fruit
Canning like a mad woman in the fall is somewhat time consuming, but has so many great benefits. Fresh fruit in the middle of January is one of them. Enjoying fresh black berries, strawberries, pears and other summer fruit in the middle of winter is a great treat. They make a wonderful fresh fruit salad on a bleak cold dreary day. It reminds one of a warm summer breeze while the snow is piling up outdoors.
