Hi Tamtbell, sure, you can join us. The more the merrier. I managed to have a pair of rabbits over the winter that I would love to find homes for. The guy that had them turned them all loose when he didn't want to be bothered any more so I ran a couple down and caught them with a dipnet. Now that wo...

So far, I have finished 6 novels integrating a lot of the experiences from my life into the stories. I'm not claiming they are great, they might be considered different, LOL.

The Augason Farms brownie mix is very good. Better than most packaged mixes and very close to made from scratch brownies.

We lived on a dairy most of the War years, so meat, eggs and milk were not a problem for us. However, after I married and the Toad didn't work very often, we usually couldn't afford eggs or milk, let alone meat, so I learned to do without. I didn't cook beef though, until after I married even though...

That's the sweet thing about home canning. You can add or delete anything in the recipe and usually it won't cause any problems. The only exception would be if the item were needed to acidify a food for water bath canning. Vinegar or tomato come to mind. Other than that, have fun and can your food t...

Maybe a supply house for grocery stores? The canned soup or juice racks may be similar or maybe could be modified to fit your needs if you don't want to build them out of wood.

The jars should be clean, yes, but if they are being pressure canned or boiling water bath for a long period of time, it is pointless to sterilize also. Clean conditions pretty much make safe foods. Clean, not necessarily sterile. I've canned most of my life and have usually lived as I do now, no el...

I shoveled a path to the small cabin we hope to have ready to rent by the middle of May. The snow is still well above my knees, almost hip deep. I always cut the bottoms off large dry onions, also, soak overnight in water and plant the root ends. They come up as clumps of green onions and I cut them...

Hi Permafrost, No, I have been unable to order seeds and haven't been to town often enough to actually do anything pleasurable, like browsing for seeds. I stil have a lot left from last year. If you drive this road often, you have seen my welcome signs at my driveway, lol. Insured by Smith & Wes...

North Pole is fairly local, for Fairbanks. Just letting everyone know where there are some good programs available that I know about. Since I live a lot farther from town it is hard for me to set up a time and place to meet anyone. My daughter's business opens the 16th of May here, so if anyone want...

Having been married for a while to a fellow that was allergic to work, if it hadn't of been for my 'preps' before they were considered 'preps' my kids and I would have starved between jobs. Even my second husband that worked as hard as he could, whenever he could, was still a seasonal employee, yet ...

Peach, I haven't tried that, but it works well in other things, so maybe experiment with it.

Wow, I have no idea. Canning would firm it back up, but why bother if the flavor is off. Sorry about the waste, that sucks.

Wow, I got my first mule deer buck when I was 12. My parents must have been awful. Of course I was only 2 weeks old on my first hunting trip.
