The Perfect Off-to-College Gift!

Aug
19

Your kids off to college? Mine are! This is the first year Ross, Weston, and Morgan are all three in Morgantown at WVU at the same time. I’m looking forward to visiting them there and hearing all about their experiences. Meanwhile, I’ve got the perfect gift for the special college kid in your life!

It’s the Treat of the Month Club! College students are always hungry, and what better way to let them know you’re thinking of them than to give them the gift that keeps giving–once a month, for three months (which is almost the whole semester) they’ll receive a box of goodies selected by you. Choose from dozens of flavors of biscuits, cookies, scones, fudge, and muffins. Their first shipment comes with a gift letter to let them know who gave them this delicious gift. You can check out the Treat of the Month Club here.

The Slanted Little House

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....

Can citric acid be substituted for the ascorbic acid crystals, and if so how much

I work at a Hardware Hank. My store sells traffic cones and other safety equipment. If your local Hank doesn’t have them, they can order. I only say this because it can be hard to find them.

It's been a while since I have been on your blog, and was glad to see an update on your now adult children. Good Lord where have the years gone! It's nice to see how well they are all doing. Congrats to all of them!

So glad to see how you do this! We butchered one time many years ago and it was a pain on so many levels. I love seeing the tools you use and your process. Thank you!
rurification on Morning, with Meat Chickens
A few people have asked me about that, so I added a paragraph to the post about it. The time to gut is after the plucking and right after removing the feet, before you start cutting up the chicken--if quartering. If keeping whole chicken, you cut then you're done, no further cutting up. So you don't have to go back to find out, here is what I added: If you plan to keep whole chicken, you're going to get up close and personal now with some chicken butts and pull the guts out and remove organs you may want to keep. We decided to just quarter this batch--cutting out thigh/leg pieces and breasts--so we didn't even gut them. (You can quarter, carefully, without gutting.) Next batch, we'll keep a few whole chickens. I like a few to roast whole through the year. When we do that, I like to seal...

Good for You! I like spunky people who will not be deterred by someone else's idea of what's best. I am glad to see your posts again! I really enjoyed the chicken slaughter even though I am a city girl and will probably never do that. I was wondering about when in the process you remove the innards and what happens to them. My grandmother raised chickens, and I remember her going out in the morning to kill a chicken for dinner (lunch). Because I was visiting from the city, I was never privy to the process - the farm folks were afraid it would upset me! lol

Thanks! I love to eat chicken and it is good to see how to properly dispatch them after a happy life with out undue trauma or mess.

You made fast work of that. I remember going to my grandmother's and it was a very slow process to scald and pluck just one chicken for our Sunday dinner.
Louise on Morning, with Meat Chickens
Thank you for the wonderful update. When I hear West Virginia, I always think of your and your family. I’m glad all the kids are doing so well and seem happy. Best wishes to you all from Eastern NC.
