One of the things on my mind is whether or not to cease blogging at Holly Tree Manor. Holly Tree Manor details more of my day-to-day activities of country living. I share things like gardening and canning, things that not every reader would care about. Holly Tree Manor is a way for me to record my life so that when I'm old I can look back and remember who I was in this time of my life.
It may seem strange, but being I'm not a trusting sort, I also copy all the entries from my blogs to a file and save the file as a .pdf. Just in case Blogger decides to cease.
Today's question was to share Jardinere at Between the Keys or at Holly Tree Manor. I decided here would do.
Jardinere is the name given to the end of the garden produce that is pickled and preserved. Jardinere is made with cauliflower, onion, carrots, celery, cucumbers (or zucchini if you prefer), and bell peppers of any color. I think it's delicious - tart and crunchy! The recipe is in the Ball Book. (That is not an affiliate link.)
Preserving food at home is something I like to do. I wish my ground was arable so I could plant a large garden, but it's not. Within the last few days, dockworkers and longshoremen along the east and gulf coasts went on strike, wanting an over 50% pay increase. Stop and think about what that increase will do to the price of food.
Preserving food at today's prices is actually saving money when you consume that food next year. We can't stop inflation, but we can slow it down in our individual pantry.
Now back to writing!
