I didn't know that squash can be canned, but here's the recipe. Thank you Kenni Sue Gregg!

2# of any squash cut into 1/4" slices

2 small onions, cut into 1/4" slices purple makes it pretty

1 cup chopped celery

1/4 C salt

Place in a bowl covered with water for 2 hours

DRAIN; add veggies to pot with:

2 Cup sugar (using less sugar makes a real difference, I don't suggest it)

1 tsp celery salt 2 tsp mustard seeds

1 tsp tumeric 3 Cups apple cider vinegar

boil for 5 minutes

place in hot sterile jars

process for 15 minutes.
