Storage space is also our problem. I have two large plastic storage containers under my double bed, extra shoes, purses, etc. I should get them picked up by goodwill but just haven't done it Most of the shoes are almost new,only worn once or twice, bought before I had my fall. I would like to give them to someone I know but so far they don't wear the same size.8 1/2 narrow mostly summer sandals (SAS brand).Different colors. Our pantry is jammed as well as the two refrigerats with freezers. Shelves in the garage are pretty full, could really use another room on the house or a triple garage instead of the double we have. My kids were down from Colorado a couple of weeks ago and I gave them a few things however, they don't have any extra space, either. I don't shop anymore so I don't keep up with prices. The only way to get them down is refusing to buy them. Of course, they are adding the high transportation costs to everything.

J.t...... I was thinking about the pressure canner after I sent off the email...... and how did all those women can in the olden days without a pressure canner!!! Well,,,,, you surely did answer my question. I should have remembered my own gramma that had a wood stove too......she canned plenty and kept everything in the "root cellar" (scarey place!!). I have an electric stove (ack) which I just can't get used to using even after 10 years. As long as I can get the water to boil and stay boiling for the length of time everything should be ok. After MaKettle blew up the ketchup she was canning in a pressure canner, I've had my doubts about using one. paulette in sw fla usa....... need to keep my hands busy.... and my brain too (well, what's left of it)..... xoxoxoxoxo -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: askgranny@juno.com > My Ma canned small Iris potatoes in the lean to kitchen of her big log > house, and she never had a pressure cooker in her life!

I agree with you Stella... the trunk of my car gets too hot and some of the cans might burst. Then, it's gonna get COLD before much longer and they might freeze and burst.

wellllll....... just found out that taters must be canned in a pressure canner..... ~~~: )~

Which to choose? And does anyone know what is a decent price for the pressure canner? A regular canning pot is about $20.00 at wallyworld; don't know about the other. There will be some fresh fruits here and some veggies that I would like to put up..... strawberries will be plentiful (I hope) in a few months....and maybe taters. I've looked at the thrifty stores for both canners but nothing to be had. paulette in sw fla usa........ preparing for the worst; praying for not the worst xoxoxoxoxo

Emma...I have toured the cheese making place at Tillamook, OR....I actualy packed bags of curds to bring home on the plane! Thats what I drool over when I think of it. The fresh cut cheeses will cause your taste buds to pop up and sing, Boy oh Boy...what a trip that was. I was in Oregon exact time you drove through here going to Georgia...you were within two miles of my house, on I-59 and I was visiting in Lincoln City. Best trip of my life! I was tempted to buy a house that I saw for sale there...but thought of that long plane trip...from one coast to another...and all my kids and grandkids in Alabama.I knew I couldn't pay the phone bill every month and not to see them, often, changed my mind. But I sure loved every thing I saw in OR. We picked the big lucious berries from near her house, and made Jelly while we were there. I made a large "Southern"cobbler, the first for her German Chef husband! She said she made biscuits every day to eat with that wonderful red jelly.! So I cried half the trip back. . P.S. Sam's still has the two pound Kraft Chedder, gone from 5. 44 to 5.99, I think.

Have you ever tried an apple sandwich? I just spread Miracle Whip on both slices of bread and slice an apple about medium thickness and sprinkle with salt and... yummy!!! It's good... try it sometimes.

Emma, things get too hot in my car trunk.

S.

I had friends that bought the 4-5 lb containers of peanut butter so I asked them if I could have the containers when they got empty. I kept dried beans in them. That way no bugs could get to them. We're having temps in the 60's during the day, down to the 40's at night so no chance of anything getting too hot. I'll start bringing the cans in a little at a time but I didn't see any hurry in doing so.

too funneh, emma.........

I mostly got lettuce on a sammach at vacation bible school.....otherwise it was 'lonie and mayo..... or just mayo hold the balognie. I still make sammaches when going anywhere.

I like an apple but in a sandwich doesn't appeal to me. I eat an apple by itself as a snack in the afternoon. Certain apples I like with salt sprinkled on them. But, I have a salt problem so I can't have salt so I eat my apple plain. I did splurge and have some salt on a tomato over the weekend. I had been given some tomatoes fresh out of a garden and I just HAD to have some salt on that. Don't tell my doctor though.

With all of the talk on here about stocking up, I've started buying extra when I go shopping. I don't have a lot of room in my closet/pantry so I've left the cans in the trunk of the car. Good place for storage.
