My big goal this year is to prepare the house for NativeJR. Which is going to be pretty ambitious as MRS. Native wants to put in completely new floors which is going to be a massive job.

I also want to get about 50 quail, so will need to build them a completely new pen and set up fortunately that shouldn’t be too difficult I don’t think.

I would also like to grow bunnies and that will be a lot of work because you have to make several pens to separate the men and the women and the babies since rabbits are pretty violet and will kill the babies if you aren’t careful.

I’m hoping for a great harvest on garlic (which I already planted) and hoping my three rhubarb plants will take off this year.

Basically home renovations is the big thing. I cut down my booze a lot and it’s basically just once a month now and I’m hoping to cut it back to just special events this coming year.

I also want to focus on cutting down my debt, it jumped up quite a bit and my household is now just a one income family so we have to be more careful with money. Though if the rabbits and quail take off this year, that should really save a lot of money on meat.

The food isn’t that expensive for them. Tell you what though, gardening is $$$ buying good soil is NOT cheap.

What is everyone else looking forward to?

That’s a great resolution! What did you can? I did a bunch myself, blueberry jam, strawberry rhubarb, peach pear, pickled asparagus and carrots.

I got a pressure canner for Christmas so I’m hoping on doing fish this summer as well.

Lots of tomato sauce, tomato soup, green beans, corn, mexican pickled carrots and peppers, lots of pickles. I didn't try any meat, fish, or pasta sauce. I think next year I want to focus on more instant meals like canned soup.

Any tips on pickles? I want to make some myself but it seems like most home canners make the pickles too soft and not crunchy.

I used the mrs wages xtra crunch calcium chloride. It seems to work pretty well but they still aren't as crunchy as a store-bought vlassic
