Stage coach

Today while Lilly was helping me make applesauce and dinner she ask me a question.  She said, " Mom, when you were a little girl did they still use stage coaches? " Nicely I replied  " No, they did not."   ____________________________________________________________________________ In case you have not tried it, canning applesauce is a dangerous thing. In my canning book the directions say to bring the sauce to a boil and keep it there while you place it in hot jars. The temperature they have written is 212 degrees. I don't know if they tested out their recipe before they printed it. I got mine near the 200 degree mark and couldn't handle it any longer. I will now be nursing a few burns on my arms and hands from they lava hot boiling applesauce that splattered on me during this heating process (Luckily they are small). Maybe I needed mad scientist gear to keep myself safe next time? If you ever try it, be careful. It is really yummy and I think ...

Um...

We have been up to all kinds of fun, but I don't have it in me to write all those posts right now. The girls have been to 6 weeks of school and are now half way through a three week break. Glen in trying to keep his head afloat with the new class he is teaching, but really enjoying it. Daryl is like the Taz from Looney Toones, in to everything and everywhere. Nothing in the house is safe or off limits to him, or so he thinks, he can get himself just about anywhere he wants to be. We just had Stake Conference. It was mentioned in one of the talks that Elder Holland's talk to the CES that he gave this month was good  and worth our time, so we listened and agree. If you have about an hour have a listen. It's worth it. It was just what I needed to hear and he talked about so many things  I have been thinking about. Hope you enjoy. click here to watch the video
