So now that the summer is ending I have some ideas I things I need to do.  For one I am now thinking about what I can make for Thanksgiving and XMas gifts.  Now is a great time to take advantage of the Apples, boysenberry's,  Peaches and nectarines .  For one about 8 months ago I made Preserved Lemons which were so good and simple.  You take two to four lemons and quarter one end of them and pack them with salt and put them in a canning jar of the appropriate size.  They will be ready in 7 - 14 days and then you can start using them.  Read more in the internet if you have questions but you will be surprised how great these are and you add them to anything that ask for lemons... Skip lemon aid.   Imaging using these with a chicken saute, over fish or the juice for a salad dressing and more.  Check it out.
