I so am ready to live in the country. I think the city is taking my spirit one day at a time, so I garden, knit and can to try and fend it off. Not sure if it's working but it's been fun!vlb5757https://www.blogger.com/profile/05444876262831798051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21832089.post-10468048584994204092010-08-23T07:49:00.728-07:002010-08-23T07:49:00.728-07:00Wow, you've been very productive!!

She had a great cellar and you could see it all lined up down there pretty as you please. They even had a cold box for potatoes. Sometimes I think the old ways are the best ways of taking care of our food.vlb5757https://www.blogger.com/profile/05444876262831798051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21832089.post-2896428082760179192010-08-20T18:46:49.212-07:002010-08-20T18:46:49.212-07:00I've never been a canner, but I'm certainl...I've never been a canner, but I'm certainly a fan of canners. As a young bride my husband's grandmother apparently thought we were going to starve and provided us with all the canned stuffs we could use.
