I had a needle in my arm for adding medication as needed. I felt no
pain but was uncomfortable because of the very hard surface they had
me lying on. It was not nearly so bad as I was expecting.

COPD is a very difficult disease to live with. There is no cure (as
yet) and the medications don't always help. Still the eye drops are a
must and I apply them as needed... they act as tears to lubricate the
eye and to prevent disease.

I found some crabapple jelly at the farmers' market last year so bought
some. It was tasteless.
I used to have blackcurrant bushes next to the red ones but despite
flowering profusely, the fruit wouldn't set. All I would get was perhaps
2 berries. I eventually got rid of them. Back then I also had a
raspberry patch and planted the currants with the idea of having all the
ingredients for Summer Pudding. The raspberry yield plummeted as the
neighbouring trees "starved them out":-(

My mother made crabapple jelly and she said it does take a LOT of sugar.
It can be bought in the store here and it's labeled crabapple/apple
jelly but it's mostly made with apple juice. No real resemblance to
crabapple jelly.

I don't remember it stinking up the house, maybe I was outside when she was
making it. But yes, it was really good.

The last time I was at our local flea market there was a Mennonite woman
there selling her jams and jellies. What I bought was quite good but I
need to go back and see if she's still there and see if she had crabapple
jelly.
 
Honestly, I haven't thought about looking at the local farmers market.

A lovely vibrant tree. I'd prune away those 3-4 lower branches, they
are stealing strength from the tree and preventing it from growing
taller. If not regularly pruned crabapple trees become a bush. Mark
those branches with a ribbon and remove them after the leaf fall at
the end of the growing season. Use a sharp pruning saw. First make a
cut on the lower portion of each branch to prevent striping the bark
when making the top cut. Spray the final cuts with sealent from a
plant nursery. You can use those branches for smoking meat. If you
don't smoke meat give them to someone who does... it'd be a shame to
turn them into compost.

People blend crabapples with other apples (fruits) for cooking,
baking, and making apple sauce. Good to blend with eating apples to
make hard cider/apple jack. If not the critters will surely eat them.

Crabapples contain a lot of pectin, good to add some to all other
fruit jams/jellies.

I made these kouign-amann based off of allrecipes recipe at https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/271049/kouign-amann/
 
This might just be the best parties I have ever made. They are sweet and salty, like salted caramel. They are buttery and light, crispy, and just divine. But they take a good amount of time to actually make from scratch so I also tried with pre made puff pastry, which was much fast but the real thing is so much better.
 
Take a look at how I did it!

Hi Julie, missed the original but I like this. It inspired this post
in my local area.
 
---------------
Something simple, inexpensive, and tasty!
https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/8801/golden-chicken-tenders
 
I think it is time to post something less 'complex' for those who
really do not cook much, or don't like to. Although the actual recipe
uses just the tenders (quite pricey) reviews show many cut up a chicken
breast to strips and it worked great.
 
You can use bagged (or boxed) stuffing just fine here and many use a
lot more stuffing, even making a bed of it so there is lots to go
around.
 
Here would be my own version to feed 4:
 
1/2 bag Pepperidge farm stuffing (or equal amount boxed). Bed baking
dish with 1/2 of this then crunch up the rest and set aside for topping.
 
1/2 stick butter, melt in microwave (about 2 minutes, doesn't have to
be fully melted).
 
1-2 breasts cut long-wise to 4-5 strips. Lay strips evenly about on
the stuffing then add finer crushed stuffing on top. Pour butter
evenly over it all. May add up to 1/2 c prepared chicken bullion.
 
Cover with foil and bake then remove foil last 10 minutes to crisp the
top.
 
Harris Teeter boneless chicken breast is 1.79lb this week. Stuffing
about 2$ but only 1$ used. Can use margarine but cost should be about
25cents (even real butter) per 1/2 stick. 76 cents a serving for main
dish.
 
Now add some canned or frozen veggies. I'd tend to one of corn and one
of green beans here. Generally with sales, 50 cents a can (can be much
less). 25cents total.
 
Main meal at 1.01$ per serving. Time it takes to toss together, about
5 minutes. Bake time about 35 minutes.
 
Would you like to fancy it up but still stay really easy? I'd make a
packet of gravy. Generally 50-75cents a packet and you really only need
1/4 cup or so per person with this dish. Call it 19cents more per
serving for 1.20 each for a whole dinner.
 
So everyone looks happy then the kids frown. But Mommie? Dessert?
I'd go with a handful of grapes but you can also do baked Banana. Peel
and cut 2 bananas long-wise the drizzle with a little honey or syrup.
Add to the oven as the chicken bakes for 10 minutes. Cost estimate per
serving: 5cents banana, 5cents syrup. Add total cost per meal with
dessert to 1.30$ each.
-------------
 
Prices there are local and may not match yours but probably not
hirridly off unless looking for only free range 100% organics. Some of
the folks I am talking to haven't been paid in 3 months and these items
are what they can get from the local food banks.
 
I don't give a rats ass what the others may have said. Thank you
Julie. That was very timely. Hope you don't mind what I did with it.
Somehow, I think you won't mind.
