Now I have cookbook envy AND chicken cookie jar envy...what a great collection of both!

That's wonderful...good advertisement for you and them!

Me too! We like to use it on sandwiches sometimes (like turkey or chicken sandwiches).

That sounds good wyoDreamer. And I like your ideas of ways to use it other than in pie.

We had the same trouble with our bell peppers this year (and banana peppers too). Hoping for a better crop next year.

Very cool @Peep_Show !

The first year we planted the purple variety of tomatillos because that was the only seed we could find locally. Zero results from those. This year we were able to get the green ones and they did pretty well, we just didn't plant enough to have extra for canning.

I just put some seeds in a starter tray and set them out in a raised bed once they got big enough. Used some Miracle Grow on them, staked them up when they got tall. I've read you have to have at least 3 (better to have more) for pollinating purposes. I had a few in the green house too but they...

We grew tomatillos for the first time this year. They sure make good green salsa. We didn't get enough to can any but next year will be a different story!

Oh yeah, those cherries + ice cream = unbeatable!

@Raech that sounds really interesting. I'll look forward to seeing your pictures.

Can you tell me how you garden in pallets? And what you plant in them? We're always looking for new things to try in the garden and that sounds interesting. Thanks!

That's the gardener's refrain...maybe next summer. Enjoy those chipotles!

Ooh, chipotles are wonderful! Did you grow your peppers? We had good luck growing them last year but none at all this year. Same with bells and banana peppers. Hopefully, next year will be another good pepper year.

That's the way we like things too...light on the sugar and lots of flavor. You'll have to really load up on the apples next season, you're family is going to be bugging the heck out of you to make more, lol.

@MistyMountain congrats on the applesauce! I only have a glass top range too and have managed to do a tiny bit of canning but it does that time, lots of time.

Take it easy on yourself, those aren't anything to play around with.

Maybe you're right, too much work. But if they eat canned things and like what they eat, it just seems they would be interested in the process. My mom quit canning when we were little bitty kids so we didn't get the opportunity to watch & learn. My grandma always did it but she lived in...

That's it! Can't text while canning! LOL, it's all clear to me now!
