No frost here as yet, but snow on the nearby mountains, which will bring our temperatures down. Not to worry, it is winter!

I'm not sure if that is realistic but even just a couple of months of fresh food in the cold months would be nice.<br /><br />Plus canning. So far I have only dabbled.. applesauce, stew (don't know how I didn't poison myself), and jam. I will try new things though. Pickles is something I'm interested in doing. Right now the only "pickling" I've done is slicing up carrots into sticks and plopping them in leftover pickle juice for a few weeks. They taste like pickles, just more crunchy.<br /><br />And freezing of course! Hopefully we get a deer this weekend and I can start that chapter in food storage.Amandanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7789865586418282697.post-26354336367654586302014-11-04T06:56:07.054-05:002014-11-04T06:56:07.054-05:00oh wow, lucky pigs!oh wow, lucky pigs!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12874273438983052621noreply@blogger.com
