I imagine this is how it was first performed--an all male choir with the soprano parts being sung by prepubesent boys. It is a wonderful presentation. Enjoy!

Violet - would pre-boiling the ham before processing it get rid of the sugars that turn red/brown during the canning?

I was in Winco today and they had butt portions of ham for $ .98/lb so I bought one.

I'm about 5-2 1/2 and that sink and countertop keeps getting lower and lower.

Gee Jeepers! Could you be any more precise???

BTW-I am 5-2 1/4

I am so happy to find out that I am not the only one who thought the discussion was going to be about sewers, not sewing!!!

I was all ready to discuss the problems the enviornmentaly mandated low-flow toilets are causing in San Fran - the "City by the Bay," or what would happen to people who live in an apt, or someone who doesn't have a back-flow trap installed on their sewer line would be facing.

However, since this is actually about sewing, I don't have a thing to contribute since I'm not a sewer!!! (or a seamstress)

Welcome Pearl. Look forward to seeing you around the forums!

Oh! You're talking about a real cat.............as in feline. I thought you were talking about our Cat.....................as in Cathy!!! I was wondering what she was doing at your house.

I usually wash the jars after processing too. And I thought about the rust issue. But they seem to stack better (more stability) if the rings are left on. Guess I'll go back and remove them. Thanks.

Let me interrupt and ask a question. Do you leave the screw rings on your canned goods after processing and when putting them in storage???

Hi Nana! Long time no see. Welcome back.

May be cheaper Vic, but still unaffordable for lil' ole me. THAT's why I'm gonna move in with kappy!!! Hi kappydell.

kappydell-

$59.99 * 30 = $1619.70

unfortunately that is higher than my current monthly income. guess I will just have to move in with you!

Glad to help.

I must admit, I've never thought of Darwin's Theory of Evolution in quite this way. It makes a whole lot of sense. Thought I would share it with fellow h-schoolers so you can pass it on to your children.

Critical thinking is soooooooooooooooo impt, isn't it?

The main point of Darwinism is not the idea of evolution. That idea long preceded Darwinism. It goes back to classical Greece. The main point of Darwinism is to promote the idea of purposeless life prior to the advent of man. It promotes the idea that all life came out of a purposeless universe, and until the advent of man, there was no purpose in the universe.

 

The main motivation of Darwinists has always been to elevate man as a replacement of God. What God is not allowed to do, namely, shape history, including cosmic history, in terms of His purposes, man is now said to be able to do, and therefore he has a responsibility to do it. It is the elevation of man as the new God that is the essence of Darwinism, not the doctrine of evolution. This is why Darwinism is a religion.

So. did anybody take advantage of the battery sale??? I did. I got 3pks for $12 + tax = $12.87/90 batteries = 13c/battery!!!

If not back in the dehydrator, try using your hair dryer to heat up the dried food a little so it loosens its grip on the wax paper. Its paraffin wax so you might have success.

Thanks nerd. Will give that a try!

Randomness and idiocy aside....................................................
