okay no accounting for cold fogging brain why does the recipe say dp not add shortening add lard then

People get very confused about the name. Crisco stole the name shortening from the cooking technique.
You can use butter, lard and crisco(vegetable shortening) in any recipe that uses the shortening cooking technique. You will get slightly different results because butter has some water in it. crisco and lard will have very similar results.

In cakes, you can substitute oil for melted butter depending on the recipe.

Hello,

I harvested 2 Meyer Lemons from my Meyer Lemon tree today.

Now, I know what your thinking, “how on earth did Jared grow citrus where he is at?” It it a patio plant, it is outside in summer and inside in winter.

I got 2 tablespoons of juice from each, (Meyer lemons are small.) I used one part lemon juice to one part sugar to 4 parts water to make lemonade.

Life handed me lemons, I made lemonade, literally. The best lemonade I ever had.

I have 8 more lemons on my tree right now, not ripe yet. I also have a lot of key limes growing. Going to make key lime pie in about three months when they are ripe.

Evening all... What kind of tortillas do you want to make? The recipes are simple, but the press or rolling pin are important.

Hello,

Harvested some apricots from my apricot tree. I am making jam, as you could guess. Jars are sealing right now. I will post pictures when they come out.
