Food Bank Fun

Pickled Radishes

Recently, on a trip to a local food giveaway, I ended up with about 10lbs of red radishes. Mind you, I love radishes, but that was too many for my daughter and me to eat before they spoiled. So we decided to pickle them.

Peach Jam (No Pectin)

This recipe is good for using ripe peaches. You can decide how much sugar you want to use. For me, I don’t use a lot of sugar. I use just enough to make sure it is a jam consistency and I feel like the peaches should speak for themselves. Peaches are naturally sweet enough. I also like to add different spices to enhance the peachy flavor. You can add a little, more, or none at all. The flavors of the jam are between you and the jam.

Food Bank Fun

In my world, food banks are part of my pay it forward program. There have been many, and still are, times when food banks have saved my life. At this time in my life, with things being so uncertain, I have to go to food banks to supplement my food budget. My budget is squeezing so hard right now that it has laryngitis from squealing. But such is life sometimes, and thankful there are places like food banks to help people in need. Now what to do with the stuff.
