I am starting a series on the way grandma used to... I have found that from my generation and below (that means younger generations) we have become significantly out of touch with many of the skills that were so commonplace just 50-60 years ago. I have in the last 15 years worked diligently on learning some of the skills that have gone by the way side as our society has become less dependent on doing for ourselves and more able to just purchase goods and services we need. However, having said that, we are missing out on the gratification that comes from doing for ourselves.
Keep checking back as I will be covering a variety of topics including canning, freezing, cooking from scratch, sewing, baking bread from scratch, and a number of other topics. Please feel free to join in the comments section as well.
I have already posted on freezing green beans fresh from the garden (see the sidebar Organic Gardening Section) but tomorrow I will be posting on storing fresh peaches. See you then!
