My problem is that I like the idea of cans of preserved things in the cabinet...but I don't really like pickled things. Sam likes them though, so I guess I could just preserve stuff for him. fafnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13015534789763166724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7696647292917589257.post-91475863823937943172012-11-14T11:26:16.848-05:002012-11-14T11:26:16.848-05:00Do you watch Portlandia?

The first episode of season two has a funny sketch called "We Can Pickle That" which you might find inspiring. <br /><br />My grandmother (Murschall grandmother, not Teague) used to do a lot of canning. When I read your post I was picturing her pantry filled with big jars of canned pears. She would always put a cinnamon stick inside.

I'm not sure if you're taking suggestions, but adorable animals videos are also always a crowd pleaser. I'm definitely going to make this apple butter, I have a pile of apples I really need to use.Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13105910803000467429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7696647292917589257.post-50719874919338841162012-11-12T15:03:03.610-05:002012-11-12T15:03:03.610-05:00Thanks!

It's kind of weird to have a jar of jam with your name on it just sitting in your refrigerator at home.fafnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13015534789763166724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7696647292917589257.post-22105732527561640732012-11-12T10:54:03.122-05:002012-11-12T10:54:03.122-05:00Congrats on the first batch!
