DW spent the first Fall/Winter that we dehydrated tomato slices eating them as snacks. We did quite a few batches. The flavor was just fine, however I found them much too coarse for snacking. DW is someone who really likes potato chips but I'm just so-so on them. Now, a tortilla chip with...

Honeynut Cheerios on the baked Gala apple and raisins, oolong in the cup. I'm wondering about citrus. We had a bag of Mandarin oranges that were quite good. Sweet oranges have a very good shelf life. DW is the shopper and doesn't like me along pushing the cart because I am, not only impatient...

During all the years that I have had dahlias, i grew dahlias from seed only once. Good success and I was pleased with the different blooms in the mix. Of course, they were late but I hoped to store the roots and have them bloom earlier in the following year. I don't remember how many tubers...
