I started a batch of Linda Lou's sweet chunks yesterday. The news going across the airways is that these things don't stick around long once they are made.
I got my first Canner pot yesterday for my birthday. I just have to rig up the jar rack or get one to hold pints. Does anyone know what I can put on the quart canning rack to keep pints from falling through?
I went out to the garden and picked all my cukes for a batch of pickles. I went out in the morning and saw all the cukes on the vine. I didn't think they were big enough so I was going to wait 1 more day. I went out a few hours later and almost all the cukes doubled in size. OH BOY! If I waited one more day the cukes would have been too big, so I picked right away. As it is, I am using striaght eights, but trying to pick them small. Those things grow fast. I already have about 15 more growing on the vine. They may be ready for pickles before this batch is done. I hope they hold off a little. 9 days seems like a long time to make pickles, but I hear that they are well worth the wait. I can't wait!
