B.G., I read the post and I like your mom! She sounded like a “Don’t sweat the small stuff…” kind of gal.
I, too, had an original copy of “Putting Food By” but loaned it to someone many years ago and have long since forgotten to whom. Hope they are using it in good health. Of course, it could have been returned and just stashed on one of my bookshelves that I haven’t dusted in ages. Oh yes, I identify with your mom. At any rate, I am sure much has changed since those days. Early ’70’s, as I recall. A new, updated copy would be most welcome.
P.S. I’m just glad I got to check in while the contest is still running, instead of being “a day late and a dollar short” and missing it like I have been lately.
