As my colleague Andrea Weigl reports Wednesday, canning has taken off with a whole new generation of home preservationists.
To keep up with the popularity, Ball has a new Home Canning Discovery Kit: 3 jars with lids, a nifty heat-safe canning rack/lifter basket for lifting jars from boiling water, and a recipe book with instructions for pickles, relishes, salsas and a few more specialties you can make easily in a boiling-water canner.
To celebrate the smart cooks who are canners, I'm giving away one kit, which retails for about $10. Respond here with a name I can recognize you with, and we'll have a random drawing at the end of the day Wednesday.
Don't forget to check back here -- if I can't reach you, I can't send it to you.

Never tried canning before, but would love to try!
My husband's "wings it" when he cans...would love to see him can the right way with the right tools!
That sounds fun to try.
I recently became interested in canning and have purchased. Few books to get me started. Now just to get the supplies! Thank you for hosting this giveaway.

I've always wanted to try canning.

It would be an honor to win this. My mom canned all the time and she left me her gadget to lift the jars out of the hot water too! Tomato sauce is the best canned! Thank you.
This looks like a fun way to keep kitchen waste down.
Thanks!

Although I have been cooking and baking for too many years to count, I have always been intimated by the canning process. I am ready to conquer my fears and have "Fresh sauce in my house this year".
I would definitely love to win a canning kit! I've been on the verge of buying one for ages but have never taken the leap.
I have been asking my grandmother to teach me how to can for MONTHS! I didn't realize a kit exsisted. This kit could get me started!
this sounds great!

Enjoyed the article. I grew up with canning and freezing, put it aside for many years and now I'm ready to can again!
Pick me! I'd love to give it a try and this would be a great opportunity!
Would love to win.
