Customize cravings with your very own Peanut Butter & Jelly cups. With dozens of Potlicker Jam flavors available, there is a PB & Potlicker combo for everyone. We had some DELICIOUS chocolate peanut butter from Cape May Peanut Butter Co. that went into the first batch. We then made a second batch with plain jane …
Summer is finally and officially here. Warm weather, sun burns, and popsicles are the hallmarks of summer in my memory. Freezer pops that melted into a sticky mess in my hands and ran down my elbows. The good news is no one is too old for any of those things. To make jam popsicles you …
Opening a jar of Carrot Cake Jam requires some serious self-control. The rich flavor & thick texture of this jam makes it easy to eat out of the jar. If you are like me and have zero self-control, you might want to hide the spoons. It actually tastes like cake because this jam has everything …
Stock up on onions because you are about to have a serious addiction. Caramelized onions are stupid easy to make and go on everything. That’s right, everything. Serve on burgers or sandwiches to add a deep and sweet flavor that happens to go really well with blue cheese. Top salads and baked potatoes with golden …

Wait! The leaves are starting to turn and I have barely enjoyed summer! I know there is something in the “How To Enjoy Life Handbook" about spending summer on an inner tube in some lazy body of water?... Yes??..... I knew it!! I am behind on some of this “Summer” thing. I have …
Here we are mid-summer and the garden gives plenty. We have armloads of lettuces, lots of broccoli, peas & herbs, and finally green tomatoes are starting to form! If our garden cooperates this year we hope to make tomato basil jam, hot yellow tomato-pepper jam, and green tomato jam. I am sure that anyone who …
Last week I walked into the grocery store and was met with a huge bin of plantains. I literally stopped in my tracks because I rarely see plantains in the markets around northern New England, let alone a whole bin heaping with fruit. They were all on sale for only 15 cents a piece! I …
Grain salad is a perennial favorite of mine (see further proof here & here). Tweeked for winters’ offerings, this grain salad features nutty wild rice harvested in Canada, locally grown spinach, and my own butternut squash. When blended together, rustic grains and veggies make a nutrient packed satisfying dish that is hearty, not heavy. I …
Here is the pizza crust that we have been eating all week! I was so happy with the results that I made it two days in a row. This crust has served as a vehicle for cheese, tomato sauce, sausage, shrimp, cilantro pesto, onions, kale, even fig jam! My new favorite pie is topped with …
