Time to campaign for the Meadow Party!

Don't blame me, I voted for Bill and Opus!

How about some Corona to wash down the chili and cornbread?

I can give you a grilled cheese and a hurricane, but can't promise anything that has to do with the weather?


DONE?

Hi everyone! (waves)

I'm taking it easy recovering from surgery. Just going to sit over here by the fire (it's only 9oC here this am). I've put on a pot of tea if any one is interested. We'll be celebrating Cali and Diego's birthday later today.

Hope everyone involved with that nasty weather is doing ok.

[Lady's Human]

Anyone want to come hep?

[Karen]

Gayle is not allowed to - she's recuperating - maybe we should send Lady over so she can get some puppy snuggles - and that'll keep her out of the way! I'll do peeling and slicing of things ...

Sit back and I'll take care of your order.......

Can I make Cali and Diego a late 'fish cake' for a b-day celebration.

Done.

LH,

Let me wash my hands, I remember my G-ma canning stuff.

I always want to learn more about cooking.

DJ.

I can get you a book of matches and some charcoal fluid?

Grilled cheese, tomato and bacon?

DONE!

[Karen]

How's the canning going, Lady's Humans? Richard, you could make a trip North a few states and get hand's on lessons I am betting!

Most common newbie mistake in canning - filling the vessel too full, so there's no way for a vacuum to form for the seal!
Between my grandfather's gardens and ours we did a lot of canning this time of year! Currant jelly was one of my favorites - Grandpa Smith had currant bushes and we made some every year, clear and the color of dark garnets by the jarful. Sooooooooo much better than grape jelly for a peanut butter sandwich, too.
