My Annual Post


I had to replace the stovepipe on the wood stove so we took it apart and replaced it.




                                                                Nice shiny pipe


I took the stove apart, painted it and replaced the silicone rope in joints.



                                                                   Finished stove.

Pickled Banana Peppers


We have a lot of Banana Peppers so I pickled some. 

Chow-Chow

 I made a large batch of Chow-Chow yesterday. I don't usually put it into quart jars, but since canning supplies are very hard to find, I decided that quarts would be a better use of limited lids.

I got:     6 Quarts, far left one is Eddie's sugar-free hot version.

              4 Pints, far left one is Aaron's extra hot version.

              4 1/2 Pints in little squat jars.

              About a cup of leftover with yellow lid that I will use first.
