    Storing my "taters

    I'll be interested in hearing how others do this too. We stored ours in a cool closet, wrapped in newspaper in a box. They were good, but sprouted in just 4-6 wks. They were still edible of course, but I want to have more for next year too. Our sweet potatoes stored better than the white...

    Natural remedies for fibromyalgia/muscle pain/arthritis?

    Thanks farm fresh- I had looked back and saw that you shared that about the ACV. It motivated me to give it a try too. and buckeye lady - good point about using a straw. I am taking Vit D3 and have decided to start on fish oil omega-3 also. Sad to say that I didn't have much relief with Lyrica.

    Natural remedies for fibromyalgia/muscle pain/arthritis?

    I read on AOL yesterday about some natural remedies for arthritis. I can't seem to find relief for my fibromyalgia, so thought I would try a few of them. One was apple cider vinegar, another was cinnamon and honey. I started these yesterday. From previous posts, I have read that some SS...

    Hard boiled duck eggs

    I hard boil mine the same time as large chicken eggs. If they are fresh I have trouble peeling them- I will try the vinegar trick and report back! I find them a bit rich for deviled eggs; I like to make egg salad with half chicken and half duck. Duck eggs make great mustard pickled eggs too- I...

    Homemade Velveeta Cheese

    Let me know how it turns out- I'm always nervous I'll make a mistake when I post a recipe. I really hate it when I try a new recipe and it flops. I need to make some more- it makes plenty so I think I'll make some of the variations. Good luck, YardFarmer Julie

    Homemade Velveeta Cheese

    I made it because I wanted it to be quick to use (usually in the crock pot) on those crazy days we're running kids around and everyone's eating on a different schedule. I love to make my own sauces and soups too. Very satisfying to know I can make something delicious that didn't come from a...

    Morning Muffins

    These sound good! I like recipes that include oats. Since I try to use local ingredients (I'm from Ohio too) do you think apple sauce would sub for the pineapple and dried strawberries or blueberries for the raisins? YardFarmer Julie
