</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Kale has become the new "super food".  Kale is a great source of fiber and protein - it is high in vitamin C, vitamin A, calcium, potassium, Omega-3 fatty acids, Vitamin E, Iron........I could go on and on.  Kale has anti-inflammatory properties, it lowers cholesterol and lowers cancer risks (again - I am NOT a doctor - this is just from information that I have researched over the years).</span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family:

width="640" /></a></div> <br /> <span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">1.  <strong>Toscano</strong> - this variety is tied for my favorite in taste & texture.  These leaves are very thin and the taste is very mild.  It has a smooth leaf and when picked young it is wonderful in salads raw!</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size:

width="640" /></a></div> <br /> <span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">2.  <strong>Savoy</strong> - This is my least favorite variety - I dislike it so much that I will never grow it again.  These leaves are very tough and the taste is harsh.  Even the "tender" young leaves are thick and difficult to eat - they keep their "toughness" after being steamed or cooked.</span><br />

width="640" /></a></div> <br /> <span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">3.  <strong>Curly Winterbor</strong> - this is the variety that we are most familiar with and I believe this is also the variety that is most often found in grocery stores.  The flavor is good but since I have sandy soil, the problem with this variety is the "curliness".  No matter how much I soak the "Curly Winterbor" in water I still end up biting down on a grain of sand - I HATE THAT!  That being said - I do think that this variety is the most prolific of the 4.</span><br /> <span style="font-family:

width="640" /></a></div> <br /> <span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">4.  <strong>Red Russian</strong> - this is my favorite (or tied for my favorite).  This variety has the most smooth leaf and the red vein just adds to it's beauty.  Even the larger leaves (as seen below) stay tender and smooth.  This might be the most mild in flavor - a little more mild than the first variety.  And the shape of these leaves are so unique - almost like an oak tree leaf.</span><br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a

large;"><strong>"...God is light;  in Him there is no darkness at all.  If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth.  But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin."  </strong></span><br /> <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><strong>1 John 1:5-7</strong></span><br /> <strong><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"></span></strong><br /> <span style="font-family: "arial";">There were 2 times in my life when I truly experienced total darkness.  Once was in the "Mammoth Caves" in Kentucky but today I'm going to share with you the other time that I experience total darkness.  I was in my late teens and I was on a canoe retreat trip with my church youth group.  It was in the beautiful wilderness of the "Muskokas" in "Algonquin" Park.  It was rustic camping and on 1 of the nights during this canoe trip there was a lunar eclipse .  These woods are dense and many miles away from any town or city - no street lights of any kind.  Normally, at night in the woods - the moon is sufficient to provide the necessary nocturnal guidance.  However, when there is a lunar eclipse it becomes darker than dark, blacker than black - it was terrifying!  Suddenly the outdoors became closed in and caused me to feel claustrophobic and I felt like I was suffocating!  I clung to my flashlight all night long - I knew who was in the tent with me but somehow everything became strange & frightening.   I normally don't mind the darkness - I like a rainy day or a dark blizzard but this was different.  Walking around without a flashlight or campfire was impossible.  Most of my peers at the time found it "cool" or funny - I didn't - I found it petrifying.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "arial";"></span><br /> <span style="font-family: "arial";">This account of my "darkness" experience is the same as what it would be like to feel spiritual darkness.  In this Bible passage today we see that "God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all."  No darkness at all - never will there be any darkness with God.  In the dark there can be no planning, no living, no advancement - no hope!  The other point of this passage today is that we can't lie about our fellowship with Jesus.  If we tell others "Oh yes, I'm a Christian" but then lead a secular and sinful life, then our "walk" will tell the truth - our actions will show others if we are truly walking with God.  God is our beacon of light that guides us through life's darkest times.  We as Christians can also be a spiritual flashlight to the world - God's love will shine through us!  We can draw from this "spiritual flashlight" by praying, studying God's Word and having fellowship with other believers.  And by the way, the batteries in this "spiritual flashlight" will never die - there is enough light to go around forever and enough light for everyone!</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "arial";"></span><br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">Remember to shine your spiritual flashlight before you make any steps in life - God is light & He will safely guide you.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size:

and in that post I promised that I would show you how to start a rose bush from cut roses.......well, I just ran out of time this year.  I do apologize - but this will be one of the first posts in the spring next year.  </span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: "arial";">However, this year I will still feature a few of my father's roses.</span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: "arial";">Today's Flower Feature is <strong>The Eiffel Tower Rose.</strong></span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: "arial";">I look at this beauty and the song <strong>"La Vie En Rose"</strong> starts running through my head.  For those of you out there who don't know any French - "rose" in French actually means "pink" and "vie" means "life".  So literally, the title of this song means "the life in pink, or in shades of pink".  When you look at this stunning rose your world turns pink - there is nothing else - you can't look away - it is mesmerizing.  Oh! and the fragrance!  Many roses can be sickeningly floral but this rose has a clean, green, cooling scent that is so intense and wonderful.  Out of all of my dad's roses I think that this rose is one of the best smelling roses.  The "Eiffel Tower Rose" is a very tall rose bush with barely any thorns - many times the stem looks like someone came along and snapped off all of the thorns but it just grows that way.  </span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /> <span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: large;">I wish that I could send all of you an "Eiffel Tower Rose" but shipping costs being what they are - please ENJOY these digital versions of this fantastic flower!</span> </div> <br /> <br /> <br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right:

style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Saving Seeds is such an important part of home gardening.  You can grow totally free food if you save your own seeds.  For example - If you make your own compost (fertilizer) (or if you have access to free manure) and if it was a perfect season (with optimal rain therefore no need for watering) - then you could literally have free food.  Except for paying the property taxes on your land there is no other expense involved in growing your own food if you are able to save your seeds.  OK, yes - time is money but the effort of gardening will only benefit your health - good exercise & vitamin D from the sun.</span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear:

let's talk about saving seeds from greens like Kale, Collards, Spinach and Bok Choy (the seeds look similar for all of these plants and the seed saving steps are also the same).</span></div> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: "arial";">Now, it is important to know if the original plant from which you are savings seeds is an Heirloom or Hybrid (I will explain this in a different post).  You will want to save Heirloom seeds.</span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: "arial";"><strong>STEP1:</strong>  Allow your plant to bolt (this is when the middle part of the plant grows up above the green leaves - as seen in PICTURE#2).  In my northern climate, I allowed my plants to "winter over" and then they bolt/go to seed in late spring the next year.  In a more southern climate these plants will bolt at the end of the growing season.</span></div> <div style="text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: "arial";"><strong>STEP2:</strong>  After your plant has bolted you will notice these long skinny pods appear.  Inside these pods are many little seeds.  You must allow these pods to dry out while on the growing plant (DO NOT PULL UP THE PLANT UNTIL YOU HAVE HARVESTED THE SEEDS) (see PICTURE#2).</span></div> <div style="text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: "arial";"><strong>STEP3:</strong>  Now you can cut the dry pod heads off of the plant and place the dried pods in a paper bag as seen in PICTURE#3 below.  (You may pull the plant after the pods have been cut off of the plant).</span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"

like what my husband is holding in PICTURE#1 </span><br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: "arial";"><strong>STEP5:</strong>  Remove & discard

there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me.  Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me.  But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.'  Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.  That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties.  For when I am weak, then I am strong."  2 Corinthians 12:7-10</strong></span><br /> <br /> <span style="font-family: "arial";">We continue this week talking about hardships, sufferings & weaknesses that we as Christians must endure.  </span><span style="font-family: "arial";">In these verses Paul talks about his concerns about becoming conceited and his understanding that "a thorn in the flesh" is sometimes necessary to keep us humble and for God to be glorified.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="font-family: "arial";">Let's be honest with ourselves - isn't it human nature to become proud and arrogant when our life is going "perfectly"?  We start to think: "I'm a really strong person", "I can do anything if I put my mind to it" or even "I'm better than they are."  This attitude comes from a belief in our own strength & our own accomplishments.  However, when something bad happens, then we have to face the fact that our strength does not come from our own being.  </span><br /> <br /> <span style="font-family: "arial";">A hardship or a "thorn in the flesh" can cause us to become weak in a second.  This "thorn" can be an illness, an accident, financial ruin, marital strife, loss of a loved one, mental disorder, loneliness.....(I could go on and on).   My favorite line in these verses: <strong>"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."</strong>  When these persecutions start, we become weak and it is only God's Divine power that will shine through our weakness.  There can be no deception, if we draw on God's power then only Jesus Christ will get the glory because nothing that I did on my own got me through any hardship.  This "grace" is the gift of forgiveness through Jesus Christ  - a gift that we don't deserve.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="font-family: "arial";">It all has to do with total trust.  I think that there is the potential for extreme bitterness here - when someone tries to rely on their own strength to get them through difficulties.  I have seen it happen many times - when someone has an issue with "trust" and cries out to God for help but then becomes bitter because "God didn't answer their prayers."  In order for our Heavenly Father's power to work in getting us through these hardships we must put everything in His hands and trust God entirely!  That is the most difficult part - "letting go and letting God."  His Divine Power is unfailing and never ending.</span><br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>The strength in weakness can only come from God.  Always depend on God's strength - NOT your own.</strong></span> </span></div>

Take them out and begin "raw packing" (<a href="http://godsgrowinggarden.blogspot.com/2011/07/basics-of-canning-raw-pack-vs-hot-pack.html"><strong>Raw Pack vs. Hot Pack</strong></a>) the vegetables. Start with a few onion rings and 1 garlic clove at the bottom of the jar and then start filling with the cucumbers. When the jar is half way full, pick up the jar (with oven mitts) and gently shake the cukes down (I gently shake the jar against the palm of my other hand - also covered with an oven mitt - <strong>the jars are very hot!!)</strong> This shaking helps the cucumbers settle in the jar and it makes more room for more cucumbers- you want to get the jar as packed as possible. Less brine will be used if your jars are packed quite tight. When the jar is about half full (see picture below) - add 1 dill head, 1 (or 2) cayenne pepper(s), 1 sprig of thyme & 2 bay leaves.  Continue filling the jar with pickles but leave enough room at the top of each jar for a few more onion rings (Never fill above where the jar rings begin). Top with a few more onion slices and then finally add 1 teaspoon of pickling spice (per jar) & 1 teaspoon of black peppercorns (per jar). (Continue sterilizing jars and Raw Packing them until all of the cucumbers have been used up)</span><br /> <br /></div> </div> </div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWVmqLJHwas2VFvrZbn-wSgBDy2oVwOhpfx5Z91u304CkAS7X7rBUDgGXLjTsvmnEn0uIez64tgmshvujGVJhndlje7pEmAfHR6VKLJWb3zp-vNocD40Cjlrx8QJUCsmBIKN_S3eovU5g2/s1600/DSCF1535.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="634" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWVmqLJHwas2VFvrZbn-wSgBDy2oVwOhpfx5Z91u304CkAS7X7rBUDgGXLjTsvmnEn0uIez64tgmshvujGVJhndlje7pEmAfHR6VKLJWb3zp-vNocD40Cjlrx8QJUCsmBIKN_S3eovU5g2/s640/DSCF1535.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div closure_uid_kccevl="213"> <div closure_uid_r98xm1="172"> <span closure_uid_kccevl="221" closure_uid_r98xm1="171" closure_uid_w4dmo0="127" face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Place the "Raw Packed" jars in a preheated 350 degree oven for 8 minutes (This is before you pour the boiling brine on top). After the 8 minutes remove the jars from the oven and slowly pour boiling brine in each jar - (you want to do this slowly so that the bubbles can work their way to the top before sealing each jar). Fill the brine up to the bottom ring thread of each jar (about 1 inch head space) (sometimes, if you see bubbles - take a plastic spoon and gently insert into the jar until the bubble is released to the top).  Now you are ready to place a sterilized lid and ring on each jar - make sure the ring is screwed on tightly. Now place the jars on the counter or table for 12 hours and you should hear that wonderful popping sound of the jars sealing. The next day, check and make sure that all jars are sealed - (if you press down on each lid and it moves up and down that means that it did not seal - you can put any unsealed jar in the fridge and eat them as refrigerator pickles)</span></div> <div closure_uid_r98xm1="172"> <br /></div> <span style="font-family: "arial";"></span><br /></div> <div closure_uid_kccevl="213"> <div closure_uid_qgk0ft="118"> <span closure_uid_qgk0ft="113" style="font-family: "arial";">Place all the sealed jars in the pantry and allow them to "season" for 3 months (or more) and then <strong>enjoy!  (If they are sealed properly they will last for 2 years).</strong></span></div> <div closure_uid_r98xm1="172"> <br /></div> </div> <div closure_uid_kccevl="120"> <strong><span closure_uid_kccevl="174" style="font-family: "arial";">NOTE: This recipe makes about 10 quarts but it all depends on how tightly you pack your jars - sometimes you might run out of brine because the jars have more space to fill.

text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: "arial";"><strong>Butta Zucchini</strong> - this is a yellow zucchini - not to be confused with yellow summer squash (there is a difference).  This is a much milder zucchini in flavor.  The skin is very tender and much more delicate.  When picked it will only last 1 day before the skin begins to break down.  Even with the short shelf life this is now my favorite zucchini because of the taste. </span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: "arial";"><strong>Greyzini</strong> - this isn't really grey, it's more sage green.  This variety is not only medium in color but also in taste - the 3 varieties shown in the picture below go up in color, tenderness and flavor.  (The yellow being the lightest in color, most tender and most delicate flavor - everything goes up in intensity from there).  Greyzini is the most difficult to germinate from seed - I only have 3 "Greyzini" plants that made if from 1 package of seeds (there were about 10 seeds in this package).</span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: "arial";"><strong>Zucchini Black</strong> - this is the traditional zucchini that we are all familiar with.  When picked this variety will last for days inside on the counter (lasting even longer in the fridge).  The skin is more tough and the flavor at times (in my opinion) is a little bitter (especially the large dark zucchinis that were hiding and grew into a mammoth veggie).</span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both;
