Grape Juice?

We tried our hand at canning grape juice this year. Does it look like juice from our green grapes to you? I must say I like this color better than green. It's a mystery to me but it does taste good. Not like red hot's, if you were wondering. Grace and Emma took turns helping. I have not found that I am agreeable to two energetic helpers at once. One at a time really is wonderful though!
We picked, soaked out the spiders, juiced and canned. Do you like my fabulous set up for the canner? If I loaded it up, I had to have the folding chairs to balance the whole thing. I warned the kids with a grave face to stay far far away while I was processing it! Not glamorous, but functional just the same.
