Our local store has garlic bulbs 6/$1. I am thinking about roasting a bunch and then pressure canning them in half pints. Has anyone else done this, recipes, hints? We eat a lot of garlic as is, and I am always looking for more ways to enjoy it. I figure if DH and I both have strong garlic...

I found a Mother of Vinegar in DH's apple juice container that has been in the refrigerator for like... months. The AJ is still sweet and good, there doesn't look like there is any other sort of contamination, just this nice gelatinous Mother floating around. I think it's not doing much to...

So on my walk through the garden this morning I noticed that there are way more eggplant than I will use before frost. How do any of you save them, freezing or ??? PS - I just love the English word "Aubergine" better than Eggplant!

My newest "Big Girl Toy" is a soy milk making machine. I am so pleased and it is paying for it's self in a very few months. We eat some dairy, but I don't want a cow and we feel the large scale dairys are not humane. So we switched to soymilk a year or so back and like it fine. But that...
