Americans finding soaring food prices hard to stomach can battle back by growing their own food. [Click image for a larger version] Dean Fosdick Dean Fosdick
Home vegetable gardens appear to be booming as a result of the twin movements to eat local and pinch pennies.
At the Southeastern Flower Show in Atlanta this winter, D. Landreth Seed Co. of New Freedom, Pa., sold three to four times more seed packets than last year, says Barb Melera, president. "This is the first time I've ever heard people say, 'I can grow this more cheaply than I can buy it in the supermarket.' That's a 180-degree turn from the norm."
Roger Doiron, a gardener and fresh-food advocate from Scarborough, Maine, said he turned $85 worth of seeds into more than six months of vegetables for his family of five.
A year later, he says, the family still had "several quarts of tomato sauce, bags of mixed vegetables and ice-cube trays of pesto in the freezer; 20 heads of garlic, a five-gallon crock of sauerkraut, more homegrown hot-pepper sauce than one family could comfortably eat in a year and three sorts of squash, which we make into soups, stews and bread."

She compares the current period of market uncertainty with that of the early- to mid-20th century when the concept of victory gardens became popular.
"A lot of companies during the world wars and the Great Depression era encouraged vegetable gardening as a way of addressing layoffs, reduced wages and such," she says. "Some companies, like U.S. Steel, made gardens available at the workplace. Railroads provided easements they'd rent to employees and others for gardening."

Holiday Season Cyber Scammers Target Victims
The FBI is reminding people this holiday season that cyber
criminals continue to aggressively seek ways to steal money and personal information.
Scammers are using several techniques to fool potential victims including sending
unsolicited e-mails that contain attachments such as electronic greeting cards containing
malware (malicious software), setting up spoofing websites that look
like legitimate commercial sites, and unleashing phishing and vishing attacks where
individuals receive e-mails asking for personal data.
“”These cyber scammers will do whatever they can to steal your money and personal
information this holiday season and are trying many different ways to commit these
crimes. The best way to protect yourself is to report these scams to law enforcement
or the Internet Crime Complaint Center,
IC3,”” said Shawn Henry, Assistant Director, FBI Cyber Division,
Washington, D.C.
In the greeting card scam, the cards, which are also referred to as e-cards or postcards,
are being sent via spam. Like many other Internet fraud schemes, the criminals use
social engineering tactics to entice the victim, claiming the card is from a family
member or friend. Although there have been variations in the spam message and attached
malware, generally the spam directs the recipient to click the link provided in
the e-mail to view the e-card. Upon clicking the link, the recipient is unknowingly
taken to a malicious webpage.
Spoofing scams are when criminals create a false or shadow copy of a real website
or e-mail in a way that misleads the recipient. All network traffic between the
victim’s browser and the shadow page are sent through the spoofer’s machine. This
allows the spoofer to acquire personal information, such as passwords, credit card
numbers, and account numbers.
Even though the e-mail looks like the real thing, complete with authentic logos
and working web links, it’s a fake. The website where you’re told to enter your
account information is also fake. In some instances, really slick spoofers direct
you to the genuine website, then pop up a window over the site that captures your
personal information. The information entered does not go to the legitimate site,
but rather to the spoofer’s account. The information you entered will most likely
be sold to criminals, who’ll use it to ruin your credit and drain your account.
In phishing and vishing attacks, individuals report receiving e-mails or text messages
indicating a problem with their account. They are directed to follow the link provided
in the message to update their account or correct the problem. The link actually
directs the individuals to a fraudulent website that looks legitimate where their
personal information, such as account number and
PIN, is compromised.
Other reported scams have included victims receiving an e-mail message asking them
to complete an online survey. At the end of the survey, they are asked for their
personal account information to allow funds to be credited to the account in appreciation
for completing the survey. Providing this information will allow criminals to compromise
the account.
Here are some tips you can use to avoid becoming a victim of cyber fraud:
* Do not respond to unsolicited (spam) e-mail.
* Do not click on links contained within an unsolicited e-mail.
* Be cautious of e-mail claiming to contain pictures in attached files, as the files
may contain viruses. Only open attachments from known senders.
* Avoid filling out forms in e-mail messages that ask for personal information.
* Always compare the link in the e-mail to the link that you are actually directed
to.
* Log on to the official website, instead of “linking” to it from an unsolicited e-mail.
* Contact the actual business that supposedly sent the e-mail to verify if the e-mail
is genuine.
To receive the latest information about cyber scams please go to the FBI website and sign up for e-mail alerts by clicking on one of
the red envelopes. If you have received a scam e-mail, please notify the IC3 by
filing a complaint at www.ic3.gov. For more information
on e-scams, please visit the FBI’s New E-Scams and Warnings webpage. http://www.fbi.gov/cyberinvest/escams.htm

Circulation of fraudulent e-mail claiming to be from FBI Assistant Director, Kevin Favreau
Spam, purportedly from the FBI,
continues to be an epidemic. As with past spam attacks, the latest version uses
an FBI official’s name. The current spam e-mail claims to be an official order from
the FBI’s Anti-Terrorist and Monetary Crimes Division. Recipients are told they
have been named the beneficiary of millions of dollars; however, the e-mail claims
the FBI has stopped the transfer of these funds due to suspicion that they are related
to terrorism.
Recipients are also given directions on how to obtain a “Diplomatic Immunity Seal
of Transfer” which must be provided or they will face prosecution. Assistant Director
Favreau is fraudulently listed as the “veteran special agent” who authorized the
“official” order.
Do not respond, these e-mails are a hoax.
The FBI does not send unsolicited e-mails. Consumers should not respond to any unsolicited
e-mails or click on any embedded links, as they may contain viruses or malware.
It is imperative consumers guard their personally identifiable information (PII). Providing your PII
will compromise your identify!

New Technique Utilizing Private Branch Exchange (PBX) Systems To Conduct Vishing Attacks
The FBI
has received information concerning a new technique used to conduct vishingi attacks. The recent attacks were conducted
by hackers exploiting a security vulnerability in Asterisk software. Asterisk is free and widely used software developed to integrate PBXii systems with Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP),
digital Internet voice calling services; however, early versions of the Asterisk
software are known to have a vulnerability. The vulnerability can be exploited by
cyber criminals to use the system as an auto dialer, generating thousands of vishing
telephone calls to consumers within one hour.
If a consumer falls victim to this exploit, their personally identifiable information
(PII) will be compromised.
To prevent further loss of consumers’ PII and to reduce the spread of this new technique,
it is imperative businesses, using Asterisk, upgrade their software to a version
that has had the vulnerability fixed.
Further, consumers should not release personal information in response to unsolicited
telephone calls. Providing your PII will compromise your identity!
If you have been a victim of Internet crime, please file a complaint at
www.IC3.gov.
1. Vishing utilizes caller ID spoofing via VoIP to contact potential
victims in order to gain access to their PII by convincing the victim that the criminal
is associated with a legitimate business with a need to know the victim’s PII.
2. PBX Systems are used by companies to allow telephone calls
between VoIP enterprise users on local lines while allowing all users to share a
limited number of external lines.

Don’t Cut Off the Netting—Yet
When you bring your tree home, carry it into the house and set it up in the stand before removing the netting. It’ll slip right through doors, hallways and stairwells without making a mess. You’ll find it easier to get at the tree stand screws and easier to tell if the tree is straight.

Smoker gone bad

Last Thanksgiving, my father prepared a turkey in his smoker. He soaked hickory chips and put them in a charcoal grill along with the turkey. The results were fantastic. The next day he cleaned the grill and threw the burned charcoal into the trash can in the workshop. A day later we walked out to the shop. When we opened the door, a huge billow of black smoke and heat poured out. After a few minutes, the air was clear enough for us to get in and open the large garage door. The entire shop was coated in black soot and in the middle of the floor sat a 3-ft. circle of melted plastic and ash—all that was left of his 35-gallon plastic trash can. He now discards his ashes outside—in the fire pit!

Lavender Sugar a great Gift for yourself
I am making this today to have on hand for the holidays, it will last up to a year. I will be posting recipes in the near future that uses lavender sugar since some folks are shy about eating buds....
LAVENDER SUGAR
Ingredients
3.5 cups sugar
4 tablespoons lavender flowers
I alternate the lavender in the jar and after about a month
you can pass it through a strainer to remove the buds or leave them in.
Strain it for things like whipped cream, cream brulee or sprinkling on berries,
But you can leave the buds in if cooking the sugar for example cookies.
You can also toss the sugar with buds in a food processor to grind it up a bit before using.
Stored in a dark place, mix well again and use as needed. The sugar is good to use for up to one year.
You can substitute confectioner’s sugar rather than granulated sugar. Use in icings and dustings.
Give as Gifts:
Once the lavender sugar is ready to be used, you can pour in decorative glass jars and give as gifts.
Attach cards giving ideas for use as well as provide the recipe is a nice touch, I have many lots and lots of lavender recipes post on my website located at www.blossomfarm.com/recipes_lavender.htm

Gel Air Fresheners - Great stocking stuffer
This would make great little hostess gift and of course stocking stuffer. I hate to waste good vodka and have made them with rubbing alcohol and it is less expensive.
GEL AIR FRESHENERS
1 packet of unflavored Knox Gelatin
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup vodka of grain alcohol
1- 2 TBSP. fragrance oil
Food coloring as desired. Dissolve the gelatin in the boiling water. Allow to cool to room temperature then add the vodka, coloring and scent. Pour into decorative jar (I use 8 ounce canning jar) with tight fitting lid, and refrigerate till set.
Later put a piece of eyelet lace (or comparable breathable fabric) on the top and screw down the ring; if giving as a gift, I would put the canning lid on, then the lace and ring.

Aromatic Spice Necklace
SPICE NECKLACE
This is a simple necklace and fun to make with kids. You would want to have older children since you will be using a sharp needle. I introduce this last year at a church youth group with mixed ages and caused some bloodshed.
This calls for soaking your spices in very warm water (it is ok for it to cool) for at least 12 hours. The wholes spices recommended are the following:
Allspice
Cinnamon sticks (after soaking cut with pruning shear)
Cardamom pods
Tonka beans
Star Anise
Clove buds
I used dental floss and sharp needles to push through the softened spices.
You can buy nice necklace closures at a local craft store.
This smell wonderful. I do sell bulk spices by the pound so you visit my website if you need a larger amount then you can buy at the local grocery

Hunter’s Minestrone
This is from Tyler Florence Utilmate this is a wonderful recipe and uses lots and lots of fresh herbs. I have made it numerous times and is always a winner with my picky family. This is a very thick type soup/stew. I used only one can of beans (black beans, there is a cannelloni bean shortage). If you think there will be left overs, I would keep the noodles out until serving or they get all broken up after heating and re-heating. I used hot italian sausage, and served with my Tuscan Lavender Bread Dip on the side.
Hunter’s Minestrone
* 2 quarts chicken stock
* 1 head garlic, halved
* 1/2 pound small rigatoni
* Extra-virgin olive oil
* 8 fresh sage leaves
* 1 sprig fresh rosemary
* 1 sprig fresh thyme
* 3/4 pound loose sweet Italian pork sausage
* 2 medium carrots, roughly chopped
* 2 celery ribs, roughly chopped
* 1 onion, roughly chopped
* 1 (28-ounce) can crushed plum tomatoes
* 1 bay leaf
* 2 (28-ounce) cans cannelloni beans, drained and rinsed
* 1/2 bunch fresh parsley leaves, finely minced
* Coarsely ground black pepper
* 12 slices baguette
* 1 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Combine the stock and halved garlic head in a big saucepan and simmer for about 15 minutes to give the stock a nice, garlicky taste; strain out the garlic. Keep warm.
Bring a pot of salted water to boil for the rigatoni.
Pour 1/4 cup olive oil in a large saucepan. Add the sage, rosemary and thyme and warm the oil over medium heat to infuse it with the flavor of the herbs, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up the sausage with the side of a big spoon until well browned. Chop the carrots, celery, and onion in a food processor. Add to the saucepan and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until the vegetables are softened but not browned.
To the pan with the sausage stir in the crushed tomatoes, bay leaf, cannelloni beans, and chicken stock. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes stirring occasionally.
Cook the rigatoni in the boiling water for 6 minutes; it should be slightly underdone. Drain and stir into the simmering soup. Add the parsley, and salt and coarsely ground black pepper, to taste. Discard the bay leaf and herb sprigs.
To serve, preheat the broiler. Put the baguette slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with the Parmigiano and broil until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown, about 3 minutes. Ladle the soup into bowls and float a couple of the baguette slices on top.

Collecting Recipes and not making them.
I love collecting recipes from the newspaper, magazine since 1985. What I find disappointing is when you make a big name TV chef recipe (will not name, names) and you follow directions to the “T” it - taste like cat food. As I make the recipes and if they turn out great I will post them. I hope you will not be disappointed but none the less I have found them interesting. My men (DH and son) in my life are a pain to cook for-—but I still force them to eat it, they know not to comment on the food or they will cook the next day. They are anti-vegetables and if by eight o’clock if they they are cooking a hot dog or pop corn -—dinner was not approved. Of course all my recipes will contain herbs and of course lavender!
