Small Batch ~ Pumpkin Butter

Tweet

Where you live it's probably not time to harvest pumpkins . . . but harvsting, we are! I'm relieved this is our harvest time, today was 110F/44C! Will just picked all of our late peaches, and we picked 3 Sugar Pie Pumpkins. We'll start a fall garden when it gets below 100F.

Rhubarb Jam with Pink Grapefruit

I've been enjoying rhubarb for almost 3 months, but this week we're supposed to hit 101F! My beloved rhubarb patch does not like hot weather and will probably begin to wilt and die.

Small Batch ~ Pear Butter

Tweet

I purchased a couple pears to make a pear tart, but the pears over-ripened before I had a chance to make my tart. In the past, they would have been tossed out, but I peeled one and the inside was still perfect. I chopped them up, added a little of this, a little of that . . . simmered awhile, and I have, not quite a cup, of very tasty Pear Butter!
