Anyone have any good, easy ground beef recipes? DD#2 just lost everything in a fire and I'm making her a homemade recipe book of easy, economical recipes that she can make for herself and little Cody. Any recipes would be greatly appreciated! T.

Thanks for the site Reci, I went in and signed up... cant wait to get my first book. T.

I have read nearly all of these books, but if I were to want a book on mastering country living, butchering, raising livestock, canning and preserving food for my family I would go with Carla Emery's Encyclopedia of Country Living... Carla's book is the "Homesteaders Bible".

Waving my flag too! Howdy from New Jersey...

Went apple pickin 2 weeks ago in NY state! came home and made a wonderful apple crisp and caramel apples.YUMMMMMMMMMMM! gave up on canning this year, dont have a pressure canner and I didnt want to drive 2 hours to a store to buy one..

Welcome Home Suzzee... it's been so long since we've seen ya. Glad to know all is well. twi

Sure hope things are all right sis... you're all in my prayers and the giant sends his love too. Call me if you need to talk....

Getting cold here already Big Brother... "Freddie" out Big Brown Bear at work is working over time trying to find food in the trash dumpster... we are hauling it out with us at the end of the day to try to get him to leave. Canadian geese that live here year round are starting to migrate this year.. hmmmmmm We are expecting our first Nor-easter tonight and tomorrow, thank heavens its not snow.... I told The Giant that I am going to get extra soups and parmalate milk and such in the house incase the winter is bad. Propane tank is filled and we can drag the grill in the house and cook on the side burner if we have to. getting oil for the lamp on friday too and have candles stashed here somewhere.

Hilly its the memories that count! The joy and the happiness that you and your hubby and guest shared will give you a lifetime of memories... God is good and the vultures..... well, you have them in every group.. just goes with the territory.

My very first crush was Troy Donahue........Oh what a gorgeous man! Then I fell madly in love with Ringo Starr and the thrill of my teenage life was going to Chicago and seeing the Beatles live in concert at Wriggley Field. They also had Sam the Sham and the Pharoughs and Paul Revier and the Raiders there too. I thought I had died and gone to heaven. giggle.

ROFLMFO.......... If I didnt do them fast they would take me forever!

Got mine! Will be sending everyone a note with a new address soon.... we will probably be moving next month and I'm not sure just when. Mine are just about done and I will be mailing them as soon as they are completed. twi

You're all in my heart and prayers Big Brother.... twila

Aint babies wonderful! Congrats snow .

I'm doing good Dad and Di and everyone else.... just had to get myself back together after a long hot summer and back to work again. I love my job, the people are great, the boss is great, and the hours are great! 7 am to 3:30 pm and I am able to do a little house work after work to keep up with things at home. I'm working in a lab area making precision valves for Oxygen units... it's tedious work but we chill and if we start to tense up some one usually jumps up and starts singing or dancin or some such silly thing to break up the monotony. I'm just happy to have found another job and one where no one fights or argues or seems to be nasty with each other. The Giant's going to go back to driving a truck part time in the evenings until his business picks up.... It's not easy going into business for yourself now adays and we cant afford to advertise sooooo.. it's word of mouth that brings in the new customers right now. We hope to be able to move into a different house before the holidays, one with a yard for the Munchkin and where he can have a dog or cat.... I'd really like to move to a smaller town closer to I work, but have to wait and see what's happening.

I went to my "beloved" recycling center again this morning and brought home 2 perfectly good tomato cages! Hmmmmmmm, now where is that site on making a christmas tree centerpiece from tomato cages? The Giant is sitting in the bedroom shaking his head again.... ROFL !!!!!!!!!!!!
