Cherry Syrup

I decided this morning that I had more than enough cherries to experiment a little bit. I searched online for recipes for cherry syrup to can and really didn't find any that were great. Some called for more cherries, less sugar, longer cooking times, no water etc. I wanted to stay within the canning guidelines so took ideas from them all and made sure I used lemon juice to make it acidic. I also did not make a large amount. 4 half pints is what I ended up with. That should last for a very long time. Other than cherry soda or cherry lemonade I will be on a mission for recipes that use cherry syrup. It will be a huge plus if there is chocolate in the recipe. At this point too I am quite sick of cherries for this year. Tomorrow I will finish up the maraschino cherries and then I will be completely done with them. This is how 20 pounds of cherries got pitted. One by one. On top of the syrup I made 10 more pints of cherry pie filling today. I believe 20 pints ought to last...

Strawberry Gravy (Or any fruit)

It is no secret that I love pancakes. Time of day is of no concern to me when I want pancakes either. If I go out to eat I prefer to go someplace that serves pancakes. Pancakes are versatile too. My favorite way to eat them is with peanut butter and hot syrup. Sometimes though I like to have fruit. When you are cooking pancakes for a group of people there are going to be varied taste buds too. Remedy this by making fruit gravy. You can use almost any type of fruit you have on hand. (Even canned fruit if it's all you have.) If you like blueberry pancakes but someone else doesn't this is a great way to get the flavor without having to add berries to the batter. I have made this gravy using strawberries, blueberries, peaches, raspberries and blackberries. For the pancake recipe go here: SOURDOUGH PANCAKES For strawberry gravy (or almost any fruit) 1 cup chopped fruit 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 cup water Simmer until fruit is tender. 5 minutes or so. Thicken with 1 tables...

Mikey Howard Eulogy

Mikey was never one to put himself first. Even with a terminal illness, his pain was always secondary to his primary mission; taking care of the people he loved. He kept his sense of humor right up to his very last moments. He was loyal to a fault even in adversity. He would repeat a portion of the Soldiers Creed, “I will be loyal to those with whom I serve.” In fact in the eight years I served in the Army, Mikey was one of maybe two people that joined out of a sense of patriotism and a genuine desire to serve others. Mikey served everyone whether they were military or not. One of the very first things I noticed when we met was his kindness toward all mankind. He didn't care who you were or where you came from, if he felt someone was lonely and left out he would remedy that in a heart beat. There is no way to capture his total being in such a short time. Since Mikey was all about love and looking out for others I want to use some of his “profundities” as he called them as wel...
