Enhancing House and Home Utah

Happy 20th birthday to my baby.

Life lesson # 2- get outside and smell the roses or lay down in a flower patch. Don’t forget to take your allergy medicine though.

Life Lesson #1. Find a friend who’ll take long walks and/or road trips with you.

Ugh! April snow showers.

Snow and freezing temperatures might have some concerned for their fruit trees. We've linked some resources in the comments that fruit-tree owners could benefit from!

Paisley and her cutie pies…

Whelp! We have puppies. 2 boys, 2 girls.

We’re expecting! We find out how many on Monday.

Saving.

Amazon Surprise and Delight You Remember the old days, when you only learned about an amazingly useful product because your friend told you about it? Maybe sometimes you were lucky enough to spot that gadget you never knew you always needed in a brick-and-mortar store. But mostly, you just missed out. Thank goodness those sad days...

SALSA! I’ve never tried to can mine, just fresh. Recipes in the comments.

Salsa is the number one condiment in the US and it is one of the most common things to can! 🍅 But should you use a pressure canner, a water bath canner, or a steam canner? In the USDA Guide to Home Canning there are only water bath recipes. This is the method that has been tested and recommended. A steam canner would also work as that is the equivalent of a water bath canner. Be sure to use research-based recipes for your home-canned salsa as this will help keep you and your family safe.
