My dear “canning buddy”, Alice!
I am thankful for her skills, stories and company during apple sauce, rhubarb, peach and tomato season. It was all I could ever do to keep ahead of her canning those peaches as she peeled them.
She’d would always start a piece of advice with “well it is YOUR kitchen but this is how I would do that …”
I have some of Alice’s rhubarb from her patch in my patch so fond thoughts always come to mind when I am picking – of her help, her friendship, and especially her love for our family! ~
