Wet Afternoon All...don't feel like getting soaked tonight, so no bow hunting today. The deer ar safe one more night..LOL!
Thanks for the tip on the 028 unk....yep, it was a great deal and someone beat me to it....I think he knows now that he sold it cheaper than he had to. I woulda snapped it up at that price for sure.
Glad you were happy with the maters kris. Nothing like success.
Sounds like the tractor will be running soon Jim. Big job for sure.
Good advice on the prolapsed vent judge...once it's good and clean, you can use a little preperation H when you gently push it in....isolation a real good idea. Good Luck!
Good job with the salsa TO...we should taste test everyones at the next summer bash...always plenty of chips and hungry folks.
that aren't bias...like me....
I don't hink I posted the V8 juice before....kinda easy peasy....
tomatoes cored and skins slipped chopped for a little faster cooking down time
green peppers , onions, celery, carrots, beets, cabbage and spinach if I have it.
Clean and chop all your veggies ahead of time then it's ready to add to the tomatoes when you get them ready.
I usually do like 12 quarts of tomatoes at a time ( I have a 4 qt, measuring bowl)
So per 12 qt s. I usually use
3 peppers
2-3 onions depending on their size
4 ribs of celery ( leaves to if it has them)
4 carrots thinly sliced they take longer to break down
1-2 beets again depends on their size
2-3 cups of cabbage
nice handful fresh spinach
Put in a kettle and cook till the veggies are done. Keep checking tho so it doesn't stick. Not sure how long I always eyeball it. When I think it's the right consistency, then I turn it off and let it cool awhile before I put it through my sauce master. (Oh and don't throw out the stuff from the jucier the chickens love it !!)
Then put the strained juice in abother kettle, cook for ten min. jar up with a t. salt in qt jar 1/2 t in pt jar, process in pressure canner for 15 min. pints and qts. 5lbs pressure.
Any questions just holler.
Enjoy! Each batch tastes a little different depending on the ratio and size of veggies....always delicious.
Sorry I thought donny was bryon Doc.
you prolly gave bryon the high five, so we're good, eh!
Good score on the walker Cind. Nice to have when you need it.
One of the light brahmas had a big fresh mouse today and was shaking it around..when one of the buckeyes came to check it out..the brahma swallowed the whole mouse whole...just the tip of the tail was sticking out.....couple of gasps and she walked off like....that was good!
Gotta love those pretty hens.
