This is crazy good. Split a jalapeno in half leaving the stem on and deseed or not, I deseed. Fiil with peanut butter and seal back up and put as much melted chocolate as you can make stick to it. We had such a harvest of more than 20 lbs this year. I bought a recipe book just for them. Jalapeno...

I got the part and it fits! Took 6 hours of going page by page on every plumbing catalog. It was laborious. If you need an odd size Plumbingsupply. com is the place to go. It is a 3/4 female 27 thread to a 55/64 male 27 thread. They also offered it with a hose thread male. $11 and I have super...

Sharp knives, went through about every knife in the house to find one. Knife sharpener on shopping list. Shaky hands and a knife, not good. Killing named birds not fun. Have Beaky broth in the canner now. Eww Then had to test a bite of Old Girl. A couple weeks in the freezer might help.

Whingnut and Andy J. What I have is a Sun Pure water filter that we bought in 2000. They have since stopped manufacturing and my paperwork just says use the adaptor and rubber washer supplied. I guess we forgot to remove the adaptor when we moved 4 years ago and the diverter fit perfectly on the...

Whingnut, is the 3/4 the standard faucet? We were under the impression or don't know how to read the wording that we need for the female to be 3/4 and the male 55/64. Told you I know nothing, is that what it said?

We just did our first last Sunday. Note to newbies do not gut the eggbound one first what a slimy yolky mess. Very hard to tell if you got everything. second bird came out just like Biggity's tutorial.

I know pretty much nothing about plumbing. We bought a new kitchen faucet due to leaks and actually installed it correctly. Problem is we also have a very pricey water filtration system and they do not fit together. Went to Lowes and got no real answer or part available. The only info I have is...

Thank you Moolie. I just want a lot of opinions and how you have adapted youre cooking styles. I am interested in using spelt if you have recipes any one.

Gee you leave the internet for a couple days and wowser! My original post was questions about fermenting grains and new information (to me) from reading excerts from the book "Wheat Belly". The wheat grown now is much different from the wheat our ancestors grew and ate. I have strong opinions...

Thanks for the heads up, I was tripping over that Wheat Belly book. I didn't even buy it just read some parts of it on the web. I do what I can afford and have the energy for. Guess maybe I should stop comparing what I can do now at almost 60 to my youth when I thought I could do it all.

So here I am feeling all good about making healthy food for me and my family. You know whole wheat breads and muffins, cooked oatmeal and barley, making lovely pickles and all. Then--- Norishing Traditions enters my life. Don't get me wrong , love the book but I'm doing it all wrong. Oh you...

third load of cayenne peppers, for being so skinny they sure take a while. I do dry them at 115 cause I read somewhere this retained the Vitamin C

Was going to get started on the huge bag of jalapeno peppers but thought I would see if anyone knew how to get even semi-crisp pepper rings. We got a boatload this year. I normally plant 6 and 1 or 2 make it, this year it was 5. I have dried and frozen what I have room for and they are still going.

When is it ready? Tried a small plot this year and can't decide if it is ready. I cut some at a slightly tan color but the chickens can't seem to peck it off the head. The packet wasn't much help. Anybody got advice?

Bought a carton of organic plain yogurt and set it up to drain the whey to make pickles. Now I have done this before with a brand my store quit carrying but with this one NO whey dripped out. I don't get it. Is there anything else that will yeild me some whey? I don't do kefir. I love my whey...

Has any body ever canned hulled barley? Not the pearled one. I would use a lot more barley if it was ready to use and I have a bunch of bags in my freezer that I would like out of there.

I just raised my price a week ago from $1.50 to $2.00. My poorest customer said I should do it. This was after a 2 month complete lack of eggs. We will see if the sales drop. Guys at DH work will gladly pay but I have yet to see some of my regulars since I put the new price on my sign. My costs...

I store all my spices in the freezer in bags and just refill my small spice containers that are in the cabinet. I have 2 year old spices that smell and look as fresh as the day I packaged them. I love the Amish store!

Me and the Gals -I just went to the Amazon site and put in a search for Canon 860 printer ink and scrolled around reading reviews. It took a little time but I got 4 sets of the 2 black cartridges, the 4 magenta, 4 cyan, 4 yellow all for $10.46. I can't buy one Cannon cartridge for that. They are...

Started using the ink refills for my 860 Canon printer. I bought them on Amazon 20 little packs for $10 and some change. Bought some other stuff I was going to buy anyway to get the total for free shipping. The inks worked really well for what I paid as I no longer need professional quality to...
