Everything looks good Chookie.

I made an apple pie yesterday and will make another one today.

Mab, apples Re the way to go now. Lots around. Have you tried bottling some in the microwave?

May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

achookwoman what is your method of bottling apples in the microwave? Any info would be helpful.
I have been pickling cucumbers with dill and peppercorns. They are delicious.

 Thank you Chookie!
I am guessing I could use this method for other fruits.
Your instructions are really clear and detailed. Thanks

I was a bit too slow to ask the question so thanks Bootobethin for asking first. :)

Thanks Chookie for the information.

Cookie, l  use Snap a lot also.
Going to declutter my cook books also. Got rid of a lot of magazines last year. Not missing them. Will be harder with the books. A first yesterday. Went into Readings and didn't buy any books. Bought a homeless man sitting in the street a hot cross bun instead.
Today I am going to roast some nuts to make nut butter, almonds, cashews and Brazil .
Also roasting lots of tomatoes and capsicums to make soup.
Also some Zucchini soup. Both toms and zucchini from garden.
Have been harvesting lots of beans, so will blanch and freeze some.
I've culled all my magazines and a lot of cookbooks (somehow the tmx ones remain!). Thankfully these days it's easy to take photos of favourites to save clutter 😀 Even if I love a book, it goes! Also many of my favourite WW recipes are online and Paprika is a good way to save them (I find Snap good but uses a lot of space on my iPad).
Good luck Chookie!!!

I made the Hokey Pokey biscuits from here. I'd forgotten how nice they were.
Also the cake I made.
