Along the way, I’ve

When Canning and Thumbs Don’t Mix
Week 9/10 (a.k.a. The Forced Canning Hiatus) Well, folks, I’ve done it this time. Apparently, my jar-lifting, lid-tightening, and produce-chopping escapades reached a whole new level of “extreme sports.” Let’s say that canning at the crack of dawn isn’t recommended—no matter how much you love tangy, spicy, sweet goodness.

The Family Recipe Showdown: Mom-in-Law’s Mincemeat Madness

While most people are brainstorming gifts and decking their halls, I’m deep in my kitchen, surrounded by jars, spices, and a growing mountain of lids.
