I am trying to live a more homesteader lifestyle, even though I live in the suburbs of a large city and need all the advice I can get because it is quite difficult.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478697272625687846.post-33287914092143749892013-08-13T19:43:21.022-05:002013-08-13T19:43:21.022-05:00Lovely photos.Lovely photos.farmerchefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08761333163561269501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478697272625687846.post-74043159769820664712013-08-09T14:12:29.859-05:002013-08-09T14:12:29.859-05:00Cool.

Haven't gotten too many grapes from it, but have preserved the leaves. I usually order my other berry/fruit bushes from Jung Seeds in Randolph, WI. Plant Land and even Stein's here in Milwaukee have also had some good ones. I try to buy small, family-owned, independent when possible, but did find something at Stein's while passing through last week.

I don't recommend using xylitol for every sugar need as it can give one flatulence, but it works as a great natural substitute for white sugar and has a much lower glycemic index than honey. This season I will try to post some jam recipes using just honey. A direct substitution is not recommended, it can be ever so slightly tricky to get just the right consistency so it's not gummy.<br /><br />Enjoy your weekend. Sandy said it'll be a good month before they're in the field. :(<br /><br />:) AnnieAnn Wegner LeForthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16510201800762365515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478697272625687846.post-69633014873888103772013-04-12T13:22:02.280-05:002013-04-12T13:22:02.280-05:00After seeing your jam jars on the counter with you...After seeing your jam jars on the counter with your squash, I decided to make some jam too. I followed your blueberry (without mulberries) jam recipe as posted in 2011. Delicious! Probably boiled for too long, as I only made 3 half pints. Have you ever used a fruit juice as a sweetener?

Similarly, our bungalow does not have a front hall closet (or much to speak of in the way of closets at all). Your solution is a good one and something I will be pondering for our own home.
