What’s In Your Pantry?
HOLIDAY GIFTS
What better gift than to give of ones “thyme” from their garden?! For many of you that have been following me, know that dehydrating and vacuum sealing is something that I love to do for quick storage meals and for gift giving. Just add a ribbon or a cute cloth cap and it’s a perfect meal that just requires adding water. Keeping them on hand allows you to put together a meal when pressed for time, giving to a neighbor that is not feeling well, or gift giving to the busy family or teacher! Every garden has a surplus, and what a wonderful way to have food storage and creating new ways to use them. Use what you have I my motto.
Peas and blessings,
