I believe that is a whitetail rack. Nice rack too. Whitetail have single points off the beam and most mule deer have forks coming off the main beam.

@CrealCritter If you were closer I would get you some cuts off our apple trees. I'm not sure what type of apple they are as they came with the house, but a friend who is into making apple Cider says the apples from our trees make the best cider. Not so good for baking though, as they turn...

Thank you so much for re-posting that. I am going to try a 1/2 batch and see if I like it - minus the green peppers since they give me an upset stomach.

Are you willing to share your Bourbon Peach BBQ sauce recipe? I just canned a batch of Peach Comfort Sauce (peaches, brown sugar, and Southern Comfort). I still have 1/2 a bushel of peaches to can up.

It is! I started with the recipe from the Ball Canning book for Peach Rum Sauce. The first time I made it, I only made 1/2 a batch to try it. I used up most the rum left in the bottle for that batch and it tasted good. I still had peaches, so I made a whole batch of it and substituted...

I have benn using a KitchenAid meat grinder attachment for over 20 years. I picked up a new one 6 years ago because my original one was starting to split. New one - the base is good, but the grinding parts are cheap crap. So, I combined the parts for a good working single unit. It works good...

I canned 10 half-pints of Peach Comfort (a peach sauce with Southern Comfort in it YUM!) and a full pint that wouldn't fit in the steam canner is in the fridge. Need to start working on tomatos.

Maybe I'll just make crafts out of them.

I am envious of your sewing skills. I have 6 or 7 pairs of pants that need to be adjusted before I can wear them. Basically 2 to 3 sizes too big and 2 to 6 inches too long. 2 pair are Big & Tall sweats for my husband - he doesn't like the style.

When I make meatloaf, I make small, individual 6 ounce "footballs" instead of a "loaf". I like to think of them as mini-loaves and everyone knows the best part of meatloaf is the caramelized ketchup topping. With mini loaves, each one is drenched completely with topping. It works out...

Sockeye Salmon with herbs, parmesan noodles and broccoli

Smoked Meatloaf sound really good. The BBQ sauce topping too!

@FarmerJamie Thank you so much for the instructions!

What did you put in with the cherry tomatoes? I love to can cherry tomatoes and thought about adding garlic but have heard that garlic will go bitter when canned.

I have a Pasta Fagiolu recipe that I really like, but DH doesn't eat much soup. I am going to can it up in pints and then be able to have it for lunch whenever I want.

@FarmerJamie Thank you very much for the salsa recipe. It sounds delicious! It sounds like your wife is really enjoying the canning.

I wish I could build new stairs - there just isn't any room to. This old house has so many oddities, it just makes me shake my head. There are water pipes coming out of the basement wall right above a step and have a 90 degree bend to go under the staircase. They were made to move the well out...

That looks really nice. Congrats.

Would you share your canned salsa recipe? I have tons of peppers out in the garden and tomatoes are starting to ripen. Need to come up with something to do with all of them.

Missed the apple crop this year. Went out to pick and they are rotting on the tree. I will need to rake the dropped apples up and dump them on the compost pile in the field. Bought a box of peaches, so i will be canning peaches the next few days. Slices and Peach Comfort. Need to go into the...
