Have you elver canned something you didn't like?
Comments (29)Oh yes, this is a great thread, LOL. Let's see, I made some completely tasteless corn and black bean salsa, the beans just seemed to absorb everything and it tasted like eating paste or cardboard. Anyway, it was a bad idea. My pickles are always soft, except Linda Lou's sweet pickle chunks. And, as Readinglady pointed out, everyone doesn't like the same things. I don't care for dill or sour pickles at all, but Dad loves 'em, so I make them. One batch, every year. The remainder of my cukes become sweet relish and those sweet pickle chunks that I love. My worst canning experiment wa the mincemeat. Yes, the real stuff with beef and "2 pounds of suet". It was mincemeat like Dad remembered all right and every bite would coat your mouth with that lovely layer of tallow. Ewwww. It was awful and I could feel my arteries slamming shut. I've never made a spaghetti sauce that my girls liked as well as they like Prego, but that's them, LOL. I think the roasted red pepper spread needs some hot peppers, it's too bland without them. I made some really good kumquat chutney but can't figure out how the heck to use it all up, it just doesn't "go" with a lot of things. Then there was the dandelion wine.....

Comments (8)When we were buying a house in Minnesota a number of years ago, at one corner of the property there was a large pile of pieces of metal. It was an un-assembled artwork made by a friend of the owner -- a 20 foot tall steel tyrannosaurs skeleton. The artist had made it under commission for a park in St. Paul, but when he finished he decided he wanted the city to pay more than the agreed upon price. The city said no thanks. The artist asked his friend to ask us whether we'd be interested in buying it for a mere $50.000. Hah. As if. Our response was "No thanks", and if it wasn't gone by the end of the day of closing we would considered it abandoned property, and would have it hauled away as scrap and would bill the artist for the disposal fee....See MoreDo You Throw Out the Sliver?
Comments (17)Guess we all need glasses! (Or stronger prescriptions) I, too, kept seeing this as SILVER and didn't bothering reading the thread. Tonight I decided to see who WOULD throw out their silver and that is when I realized I had misread the word! I guess I am not very frugal when it comes to soap because I haven't done anyting with that sliver. Now I'll think about it!...See Moreblfenton
