I am honored to have that canning knowledge of old. Will you join me?

Andrews PhD, Teachers College, Columbia University. It is entitled "Lippincott's Home Manuals/Successful Canning and Preserving / Ola Powell."

How to water bath meats and fish.

When I WB meats, I put them (cold and cut) in the jars with nothing but maybe some seasoning, potatoes, garlic and/or onions, if preferred, no water as meat makes it's own liquid, clean rims with vinegar for a good seal, place in water that covers jars at least 2" above top of jar, and … Continue reading How to water bath meats and fish.

Something I noticed when Canning (processing my food.)

I have noticed that when I add 5 more minutes to my Processing time, the weight usually jiggles within those extra 5 minutes and my processing time is usually right on time.

Oops! I forgot I was Christian!

Christians better get used to being ostracized online. Wow. I joined a canning group and had 4 posts removed and had to remove my own canning video because I thanked the Lord at the end. Lol. I'm sorry I have to laugh at the devil's audacity. Smh.

My physician was astounded.

Another testimony. 🙂 I just came back from my doctor's office. I couldn't wait to see what he would say about my results the other day. He was astonished and asked me what I did to get such good results on my health chart, especially since I had a Cancer scare earlier this summer. My … Continue reading My physician was astounded.

Answering a Pastors question about my health.

A pastor from Pakistan who has been in our ministry for years asked me this morning what I did to get so healthy recently.

Teach younger generations to Can.

Let's teach the younger generations about canners/pressure cookers. Don't let the old ways of preservation die. If the monetary/governmental system fails you, how will you eat? Plus, we can teach them not only how to can foods and preserve them, we can make dynamite meals within the canner/cooker itself and even use it in the … Continue reading Teach younger generations to Can.
