I agree with Latestarter - "they slew, he was slain"

I agree with Latestarter - "they slew, he was slain"

while I was rambling she says it

Archaic words aside, it's not all that unusual a conjugation - a bit like "fly:" I fly, I flew, I have flown.

wow, all this discourse over the choice of a past tense... I didn't slay him, the powers that be slew him! And after he was slain, he was missed by the masses for his straightforward approach to most issues, pulling no punches and being open and outspoken eventually leading to his demise.

I'm wondering how the peaches are down in AL Bamadude's neck of the woods are. I have this recipe for peach amaretto jam...

My friend and I are making strawberry jam right now. She's licking the pot. No joke.

Oh man that sounds yummy, wish I were there. I would be licking the next pot.

Had neighbors come and pick on our cherrie trees..they were full full this yr. I opened up so many cherries and ate them, and never did find a worm. One lady is going to make some cherry cobbler from some that she got..she got a lot.

That sounds amazing. Wish we had some cherry trees. A few years back someone sent me seeds from their tree but they never sprouted here.

It was worth a shot.

I do have some apple trees we planted 3 years ago, hopefully in the next 3 years we'll be getting old style apples off them. I have a lot of apple recipes.

Last batch of plain strawberry jam is in the canner now. It's hotter than hades in this kitchen... but the results are worth it.

I used to have a cherry tree, but never got a single cherry off it... the birds took every last one. Used to have peach and pear trees when I live in VA Beach... that was some killer fruit. The pears produced so heavily that I had to prop up the branches, & cleaning up the ground and dodging yellow jackets and other wasps was a nightmare. But watching drunk insects from eating fermented pears was pretty cool. Next property I buy I hope to develop a true orchard with lots of different fruit trees.
