Persimmon doings
So far I've pulped and pureed eleven cups of persimmon puree. Three cups
were used in making two different persimmon cakes, both turned out well but I preferred the sheet cake to the bundt one. Tomorrow I will make some persimmon jam, been awhile since I've done that. Tonight's dessert will be simmon puree that has been frozen and then slightly thawed, we like to eat them that way. The dilemma is I still have about two dozen simmons ripening on the counter. Food processor is getting quite a workout these days. Has turned off cool (51F at wake-up time) and windy down here. First time I've had long pants on since last March. Tilly Dawg is at the vet's getting spayed so it's rather quiet around here today, no high speed rat terrier tearing through the house carrying her critter and squeaking it. George

Awww she will be back soon and tearing around )Where are you in the world George? Are you in the South of the US? Get out your map of the USA and look for a little city called Sulphur, Louisiana. We've lived here since 1988 and it's an okay place to live. About 35,000 good people and another dozen who aren't very good. Low crime rate, low fire rate, but surrounded by chemical plants and refineries. Which was lucky as I worked in those places for more than 45 years. South is about right, we're in USDA Zone 9b, nearly sub-tropical. We get from 40 to 100 inches or rain a year and the state is primarily agricultural, rice, cotton, soy beans, cattle, etc. We live in the industrial part along Interstate Highway 10. I grew up about 35 miles west of here in Texas where Miz Anne and I lived for the first 15 years of our marriage. Since then we've lived all over the world and seen wondrous things in our travels. Still, I'm happy to be living where I am now. Come and visit, the front door is seldom locked. May be because of that "Armed Resident" sign on the door. George
