It has been really interesting as many of you recount how our ancestors lived not that long ago. Do any of you remember the community coming together to make molasses on a fall evening?Maybe it is still done the same today?Remember them being stirred with something that looked lke a shovel.It has been about 40 yrs. since I saw it. Also remember my grandmother making apple butter in a large pot over a fire in the backyard.I am also glad I had the opportunity to see butter churned.real homemade mincemeat(esp.pie),and vegetables being canned.Things my children can only hear about.
