Harvest Time

Apples, squash, horseradish, tomatoes, potatoes, carrots, beets, rutabagas, plums......Don't you love harvest time?  I keep quoting "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few"  to my children. ;0)  So many jars to fill, so much time spent in the pantry just loving the look.
Today I'm going to put up some pineapple zuchinni.  Just preserving zuchinni in pineapple juice is supposed to make it taste like pineapple when you use it.  I also like to put up a few pints of horseradish sauce.  My dad loves it. (So do I.)  I like to put up V-8 juice for him too.

The birds are starting to get to the apples, so I think that we need to pick today.  That will be a fun job for the kids.



Not a good shot of the appletree outside the frontporch window.  It is loaded with apples this year.

May your day be blessed.

I would love to start horseradish. Where do I begin? How do you start going about planting, caring for, and then converting it to the Jar? I would love a blog on that!
