Snow and cold after a couple of warm days. I don’t enjoy looking out at the garden because of the state that fence is in. Yikes! New one this spring for certain.
For now I am enjoying the pickles we made, the peach and the raspberry jam. And the occasional green beans. Hubby still has various pickled squash and some frozen. I think we just finished the last loaf of zucchini bread. Used the last of the tomato sauce in chili last week. Definitely makes a noticeable difference in the taste.
I’ve been making a weekly pot of chili in the crock pot-makes several meals for us.
Hubby has been eating the pickled beets and grape syrup on waffles-I rarely eat this stuff - too much sugar which just makes me crave more.
Do you happen to have a recipe for *sour* squash pickles? I’m trying to teach myself pickling with limited success...the squash ones are tolerable but not as good as my mom’s were, and the cucumbers don’t bear thinking about. :)
