When we lived in eastern NC, we used to have a garden and I did a lot of canning and freezing. But when we moved here, our lives changed drastically and we don't have the time for the gardening ...... and I don't even have room for a freezer in this house ..... :-(
I sure miss having all the fresh veggies and love hearing y'all talk about it. There's no better eating than veggies picked out of your garden and prepared fresh the same day!
Thanks for the recipe!
