Today we do something new.

Landlady walked me through the basics of canning this morning. I'm in a kitchen, surrounded by - er - kitcheny stuff. In the fridge, eight pounds of chicken. In the dishwasher, a bunch of mason jars. On the counter, a big pressure canner.

I think it's sneering at me.

But I will prevail. Today I become a man.
