Lilac lemonade with blueberries and wild violets! So refreshing!!!
I took two or three lilacs. Shook them out for any bugs, and lightly rinsed them. Put them in the mason jar and covered with water and let soak over night. I had already steeped some wild violets that I had in the fridge. This is why it has a dark color of purple. I added the wild violet water and then juices two lemons! Then a few slices to toss in. I had blueberries in the fridge and said why not! Then added some sugar to my liking and let that all sit again over night! That’s it! Enjoy!

Went to the fruit market today to get canning tomatoes. They were advertising $8.99 for 25lbs boxes. They had (5)of the 25lb boxes left. Some tomatoes the boxes looked kinda bad so I asked the kid if he had more coming out. He said "nah, I think that's it but lemme get my dad" the kids dad comes out, who is owner says "nope that's all we got but if you want to save them, I'll sell all 5 boxes to you for $10. I said "heck yah, I'll pick through them for the good ones". I walked out with all 5 boxes. 125lb of tomatoes for $10. Now I’ve got my work cut out for me…

Ghee in the Crockpot!
Ghee is butter with the milk solids and water removed, making it lactose free. The butter is cooked in such a way that the water is evaporated, and most of the milk solids descend to the bottom of the pot. Some of the milk solids float to the top, which is easily skimmed off. At the end of the cooking process, you are left with pure butter oil - or liquid gold as some of us call it. It has a smoke point of up to 480 degrees. It is fantastic for baking and frying, (perfect for fried eggs). There are many ways of making ghee, but my favorite way is in my circa 1984 Rival ceramic crockpot.
Ingredients: 4 and 1/2 pounds of butter (a mix of unsalted and salted) yields about four pint-sized jars
Cooked in crockpot on HIGH for 7 hours.
Open Kettled. The process of making ghee involves removing all of the liquid to make it shelf stable. You don't want wet jars, lids, or rings. It is not water bath or pressure canned, because moisture is not good for ghee (could make it rancid). This is the only product I make in my kitchen where I use the open kettle method, and it’s because of the water. Ghee is liquid gold, and although I like and use olive and avocado oils, my favorite oil is ghee.
The directions are in the comments if you’re interested.

In some parts of China, you may notice a strange sight: a stone carefully placed over a watermelon. This isn't to prevent it from rolling over or to protect it from prying hands, but rather for a deeper secret related to its sweetness.
During the day, the stone absorbs the sun's heat, protecting the watermelon from its scorching heat. As night falls, the stone gradually releases that heat, creating a thermal contrast that stimulates the fruit's ripening process, making it sweeter. It's a simple agricultural trick, but it carries a profound understanding of nature and its effects on crops.

I Lost My Mind
Back in March, I planted 150 potatoes of several varieties, knowing full well I'd be swimming in spuds around now. Well, my fears came true!
I've sold about 200 lbs at the local farmer's market, and that has gone a long way at reducing my workload.
However, I have 6 five gallon buckets sitting in my back room, all screaming at me to do something with them. So, today I decided to can up a bunch.
I made 20 pint jars and 8 pint-and-a-half jars of Sausage, Onion and Potato soup, and while I had the pressure canner out, I also decided to put up 19 pints of chicken soup. This is in addition to the 16 pints I processed yesterday of Bacon, Onion and Potato soup. Not one failure, no broken jars, no disfigured lids. If you do it the right way, it turns out perfect every time!
I still have a lot of potatoes to get through, and I'll be processing up a lot more this coming week. Most of the work involves peeling them, but sitting out on the back porch in the early morning is a pleasure while skinning these monsters.
