BPA free canning lids

A lot of us are canning to preserve our garden crops: I've been looking for BPA-free canning lids - if anyone knows where to find some in Canada, please let me know! http://agardenerstable.com/2012/01/20/home-canning-bpa-free/

broccoli bouquet

With such a mild winter, we've had broccoli growing since September - picked a nice bunch this afternoon to make chickpea & broccoli salad. Cilantro is growing really well out there, too - so put a bunch of that in. Just fry some peppers with cumin and garlic, add the broccoli (which cooks very quickly!) add a splash of lemon, some sunflower seeds, throw in a bowl add a little olive oil, salt & pepper to taste. I had some roasted yams, so added them for colour. Looking forward to lunchtime tomorrow!
