16°f/-8 9°C, sun, clouds, and snow flurries all day.
Some photos I don't think I've posted yet:
Today's canning: peaches from a gallon can, re-processed into usable portions. I did yams too.
Still plenty snowy out there
Clyde, taking his ease.At 17, he's earned it.
Pricing, pricing, pricing. 6 totes ready to go!
The beginnings of the chili beans I canned yesterday: washed dry beans, spices, dried onions and green peppers, a little tomato juice. Next, fill with water, lids on, process at 10 pounds pressure for 90 minutes. 14 more quarts done, and all the beans are now processed!
The moon last week,before the snow.
Okay,
Booger Hole is actually a place in
Clay County, WV, which has a dark story. I bought from the author about 15 years ago. It's a rare book,and I decided to sell on ebay. It sold quickly for $50. Now, will the buyer just read and request to return it? It is a very small book, after all, but not another for sale anywhere in years.
An afternoon snack last week: the two kinds of
fruitcake I made in December. Both are delicious, and quite different from each other.
Along the road to Weston last week, this workman was literally hanging over the steep dropout on the side of the road.
and the adjoining graveyard, with the distinctive
stump gravestone. If I remember right, it's the grave of
Mr. Stump. There is a community not far from here called
Stumptown, named for this family.
Haywagons at rest near the auction house where we picked up our wins last week.
