    Often "putting the word out" will come to nothing, however, some times it does.. Everyone has offered great suggestions and I did include any ham gear as well as farm blacksmithing and wood working tools.. Trying to cast a wider net for useful tools to put away and use.. Does anyone here know people that they may ask to "keep an eye out" for useful goods to put away..

    I canned Zucchini & pineapple 41 pints. 17 quarts of French onion soup. 36 quarts of tomatoes with peppers. This is the last 10 days. Tomorrow I am going to can Zucchini yellow squash with garlic and onions. It is delicious. My husband found it in the Oklahoma living magazine.
    GARLICKY SUMMER SQUASH AND CORN


    2 Tablespoons olive oil
    1/2 yellow onion
    4 cloves garlic minced
    1/2 cup vegetable broth I used chicken because that is all I had
    1 ear corn, kernels cut from cob
    2 cups sliced yellow squash
    2 cups sliced zucchini
    1 Tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
    2 Tablespoons butter
    salt and pepper to taste

    I also added fresh rosemary.

    Heat the oil in skillet over medium high heat and cook onion and garlic until slightly tender. Mix in the vegetable
    broth and corn kernels, and cook until heated through. Mix in squash and zucchini. Cover and continue cooking for 10 min.
    stirring occasionally, until squash and zucchini are tender.

    Mix the parsley and butter into the skillet with the squash. Season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir until better is melted and serve hot................Yields: 6 servings.
