I can see some quality family time spent on some of these suggestions. Very good ideas, although I think I might try to make the yogurt or cheese just to prove that I can’t! I’m off to Google the “how-to’s”

A word about home canning and food preserving: DO YOUR HOMEWORK. Nobody wants to end up in the hospital or worse, dead, over food that’s not preserved correctly. This sounds like it should be common sense, but this summer I had to convince a friend to toss jars of green beans because she water canned them, not pressure…and that’s a recipe for botulism. Botox may be something we all long for at age 50, but it will kill us out of a home canned jar of meat or vegetables that’s been done the wrong way. So, hit the K-State extension office website for tips and recipes, hit the Ball and Kerr canning websites (Google them yourself!), and be safe. Oh, and FYI, even freezing fresh fruits and veggies may require some prep to insure the best quality and lack of deterioration. Check it out!
