that was kinda a joke i
threw in since it was r.f.p

however, they do can
evaporated milk so it
must be possible to
can dairy. i just see no
point in it as i like cheese
and yogurt enough to make
those instead if i had an
abundance of milk of any
sort... i love goat's milk
cheeses.

good point. our freezer is usually
full so i don't tend to put things up
that way. we have no cukes anyways
here. the ones that people give to
us at odd times get turned into cucumber
salad (vinegar, water, sugar and onions)
or tsatziki sauce or put on salads.

i'm almost out of rhubarb sauce
so i should do another batch soon.
