Hi Carolyn,
I love your blog and especially your lavish use of great pics! I don't know about the 1800s but this is pretty much how my mom taught me to can applesauce! Okay, maybe she resorted to a blender in lieu of the food mill, but she collected antiques and I know we used a food mill for fun at some point :)
Anyhow, don't y'all just love homemade preserves! Thanks for reminding us that the harvest bounty won't last forever.

Hi Carolyn :)
Great pictures! How neat that you were able to watch a process from the 1800s.

Isn't Carriage Hill wonderful!
Did you see all the really big pictures that are part of the displays? My photographer did those.
I really enjoy reading about what you are working on.
Love,
Buddy
