| I am getting my kitchen cleaned out and decluttering it. Putting down new shelf paper and going to work on some breads and pies for the freezer tomorrow. |

Denise it sounds like some yummy things your making and getting your kitchen tidied up too.
I need to do that too, but it is in thought.
Have a good evening

| I finally made something in the electric pressure cooker - Pork Chops with Apples, Kraut and Gravy. It was delicious! Now I am going to try making applesauce. Looking on line for a recipe. |

Denise good job on decluttering your kitchen and baking goodies for the freezer.
Linda your pork chops sound so yummy. Glad you like cooking in your pressure cooker. I have yet to cook in mine - I have only canned in it so far. |

| Well the baking didn't go as planned and I didn't get far in anything else in there. I only did two cabinets because I kept getting interrupted. Finally gave up. By the time I got back to it it was late and decided to shoot for another day. It's what happens when you have a business run from home I guess. |

Today my Yellow Rose Cottage will be busy. Have a tray of store sliced yellow squash and one of zucchini in the dehydrator. Both in the marked down bin for 60 cents a pkg.
After morning tea it'll be mushrooms on sale in slow cooker for broth. Tomorrow can the broth. Mushroom broth is a good base for soups and sauces.
Haven't tried it before but I may try drying the mushrooms from the broth. If they dry successfully I will put them in the blender and make mushroom powder to use as a seasoning and to add to dried blends. |

Everyone is so busy in their kitchen ... I miss my kitchen ... To compensate I have been watching a cooking class on soups! Does that count?! lol
Cheers! |

| Carole, if it's about food it counts. Soups are one of my favorite things. Any points to share? |

| This week will be a busy one in the kitchen!!! Emi has backed off on her milk consumption, so I have a ton sitting in my fridge!!! I'm hoping to get some chèvre, mozzarella and farmers cheese made, as well as some yogurt and ice cream. I also need to bake zucchini bread and can some beef broth, and get more freezer meals into the freezer. Speaking of the freezer, I need to figure out what else needs to be made so I can empty my freezer more... pretty sure I have more chicken bones to make chicken broth too. We are suppose to be getting a cow the beginning of November, so I need to make sure we have room!!! |

Last Sunday I decided that it was high time I cooked! I made a roasted butternut & fennel soup!
I even think the compost bowl looked aesthetically pleasing! 
I really enjoyed making this soup. Oh and it taste so yummy. I think I will dial back on the freshly ground pepper next time. I had a bit of a heavy twist! lol
This recipe is from a class I took on Craftsy - Italian Soups from broth to bowl by Dominica Marchetti. I do like the way she goes about preparing her dishes. She makes it look so easy!
Sara, something I learned from one of the classes is if you want to keep your cauliflower white while you are cooking it in water, squeeze the juice of half a lemon into the pot of boiling water and then add the half lemon. It is suppose to keep everything white!
My next recipe will be cauliflower soup! |

Oh that looks delicious Carole! The soup not the compost, though it doesn't look bad does it now?
I love anything made with butternut! |

Carole your soup looks yummy. I have Dominica Marchetti's Preserving Italy Cookbook. I may check her class out.
Thanks for the tip on keeping cauliflower white.
Chicken legs on sale for .79 lb so I will make slow cooker chicken broth and can it. |

Carole - what class are you taking now? Who is it through? I'm missing challenging my brain with college or classes, and am thinking starting in January I might need to take something! Cooking and crafting are my passions!
On Monday I made 2 pounds of mozzarella cheese, a gallon worth of milk of chèvre, a gallon of yogurt, and granola, plus two freezer meals. Yesterday I did nothing (Aly got her cast off and we visited friends). Today I am canning beef broth and will hopefully be making butter and zucchini bread... oh and rendering and freezing tallow (beef and venison). I might have to take tomorrow off in my kitchen, for the break, hahaha. Because Friday is Freezer Meal day! |

For the next several days I'll be drying assorted color bell peppers and portabella mushrooms.
Need to take inventory of pantry and see what I need to buy, can, dry, or ferment. Keeping a rotating pantry takes work and planning. |

| I've not made butternut squash soup, but yours looks good, Carole. A local sandwich shop sometimes serves it in Autumn. I love roasted butternut squash. |

I bought myself an enamel Dutch oven ... So I took it out for a spin and made a Red Lentil soup.
I just love it. I made a fresh batch of tea biscuits to go with the soup! Yummy!
What a great lunch it was! |

Oh that looks yummy Carole! Were the biscuits baked in the oven or on top of the stove?
Looks good. |
