C, Sometimes it is hard to get out of the kitchen! It really is the heart of our home. I love cooking things my family and friends love. Feeding the ones I love nourishes me. Maybe you and your girls can come by next time you go to Textile…I’m right around the corner!

It was great to see you today, Diane …BUT … you didn’t tell me about your kitchen! I just scrolled down a few posts and saw it. How do you ever pull yourself away from that gorgeous kitchen? If it were mine, I would never want to leave it … I would become a professional chef. I am totally green with envy. Good luck on the project you showed me today, it is looking beautiful. Carolina

PS – hillsboro Hardware had some of those beautiful squatty (sp?) Ball jars that can turn your c(k)ans into lovely gifts…

Go big or go home! The only two things I reliably c(k)an are pretty simple to do : strawberry preserves (thanks for the berries, Foggy Hollow Farm and Bugtussle Biodynamic Farm!) and stewed or roasted tomatoes. Neither of those requires a whole lot of special preserving since they are both fairly acidic. My main problem is the heat generated by the c(k)anning process, but it’s not too bad if you can knock it out all in one weekend.

I’m impressed too. Canning is not something I’ve tried (& to be honest, I don’t think I could be bothered … maybe if we grew a lot of produce or it was cheap to buy from a reliable source). We only have an orange tree, a passionfruit vine & some asparagus growing; and we manage to eat it all.

This looks fabulous on you and it’s such a great colour. I have the book but am yet to knit anything from it.
