I hate canned corn, but love corn on the cob, and so was reluctant to plant alot.....Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11924993310937754220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603192921512857639.post-21166523996197456212014-08-19T10:53:02.990-05:002014-08-19T10:53:02.990-05:00I do not see the economy improving in this area no...I do not see the economy improving in this area nor do I feel it is on the upswing. My reply is do not pee on my boots and then tell me it is raining!! I can see when people do not have jobs and are struggling with my own eyes despite what the government or media are saying and I always am prepared to feed an army. Just because that is the way I have always done it and I have raised 5 kids that have never went to bed hungry. As the child of depression survivors I think my parents simply ingrained in me to ALWAYS put aside for that rainy day that is ALWAYS likely to come any minute.

I feel like the economy in our small town is shallow and anemic at best but most folks are quick to suggest that it's on the up swing. I think it's wishful thinking. I think this might be a difficult winter for some especially if the weather is as harsh as it was during this last winter. in the mean time we are preparing enough food for an army....just in case! :)Mountain Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09585895626174792658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603192921512857639.post-21546173037285611532014-08-18T11:10:26.864-05:002014-08-18T11:10:26.864-05:00Vacuum packed corn on the cob.

It is usually one of the first vegetable that we finish and is pretty well eaten up by January or so. For that 4 to 5 months it keeps wonderfully that way. the canned quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08161381921874364319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603192921512857639.post-6897716337067149342014-08-17T09:37:13.955-05:002014-08-17T09:37:13.955-05:00I have to ask (I'm new to your blog, so sorry ...I have to ask (I'm new to your blog, so sorry if you stated the answer earlier), are those ears of corn (in the first picture) vaccum packed?

I especially like the looks of that purple hull pea jambalya since I need to pick my peas again tomorrow. Isn't it a great feeling to be able to fix a meal from the ingredients you grew or raised?
