Those dumpsters need to have a ramp Tina.
I made more preserves yesterday. DH is debating what to trade our car on, it will be something second hand at the dealership....if they even allow it.

Tina, the mechanic said the noises were not good...it is in the motor.
I made dill pickles, mustard pickles and cucumber lunch preserves.
They are calling for a chance of frost tonight.

Sadly, this year I won't have much peppers. Each year there is always something that it is a hit or miss. I'll go from 5 gallons of peppers usually to maybe 5 peppers in total.  Tina, it takes about 50* F to get me out of a tank top and shorts  ...then I put light jacket on with the shorts

They can be pickled. My dad would cut banana peppers in half, clean out the seeds, grill them a bit on his charcoal grill then pickle them in a pickling & oil mixture. He added a clove of garlic and a piece of 2 of carrot to each jar as well when filling. They were heavanly! Then he would also cut green peppers into 3 or 4 pieces and then pickle them. He loved them on his lunchmeat sandwiches.

Tina, try adding milk sugar and then pouring it over ice...IMO that is pretty good that way.

I don't like it with milk or sugar and I cannot see theextra calories doing me many favors. So I'm cool with it the way it is.

Tina, I freeze my peppers...but I go through A LOT of them and they are expensive here so I try to grow them by the gallons. They are doing a bit better this week, I am going to cover them with a plastic drop cloth to fool them into growing as long as I can. I just got back from going for a few groceries at the local store...their produce quality has gone down in the past while with the new owner, yet the prices are higher than ever.

That happens, Sunny. peppers are mighty expensive here too. And they're are grown here for much of the country. And through a long season. I hope you get your gallons of peppers.

Sunny, I hope your peppers do well. You have such a short season you need everything to be perfect. We don't eat peppers so I have no idea about the price here. Junie I don't drink coffee but cool whip goes with a lot of stuff

The news is telling us to brace for heavy rain/winds with Cyclone Erin tomorrow afternoon....the elders will be in a panic today. I need to clean DH's truck today....one should be able to just hose it down on the inside as well as the outside.
