Almost Whole Wheat Bread

Tammy made this after I had Finn and I thought I'd died and gone to heaven. I called her or texted or something the next day and basically demanded that she give the recipe to me. It got water stained and eventually misplaced, so I begged her for another copy. Both of our printers were down so I scanned it. I used to be very intimidated by yeast, but I am gradually overcoming it. Maybe I already have? Anyway, here you go:

I just mix the yeast and the sugar with a spoon and I let it rise in the bowl. Don't tell anyone. Maybe I should try it as written and see if it makes a difference. You probably have to click on the photo to see it better.

Dilly Beans

By azandersens
This is my mom's famous recipe for canned "dilly beans". She uses fresh dill grown in her backyard. You'll like them if you like pickles. There is never a Dunaway function without them. Wash fresh green beans and snip off the ends.  Put 1 clove garlic and  1 head dill (when it reaches the seed stage) in a pint-sized jar, then pack the jar tight with as many beans that will fit. Brine: 2 c. vinegar 2 c. water 1/4 c. salt - no iodine! 1/4 t. cayenne pepper Heat brine & warm lids. Cold pack in water bath & boil for 10 minutes. If you're like me and have never canned before, that may have sounded like Chinese, but I'm posting it for my canning guru friend. I think someday I'll get there. I would guess there would be a time to wait to make sure the pickling process was complete, but I don't know how long that would be.

Baked Beans

By azandersens
So what if nobody has posted in a year and a half? I got this recipe from my cousin Carolyn and needed to type it up. I really love the contrast of the different beans in this one. Great for bar-b-q's and potlucks. 1 lb ground beef (I did not include this. To me, putting ground beef in baked beans turns it to chili.) 1 lb bacon 1 onion, diced 1 15 oz can butter beans, with liquid 1 15 oz can red kidney beans, drained & rinsed 1 15 oz can pork & beans 3/4 c brown sugar 1/2 c ketchup 2 tsp apple cider vinegar 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp pepper Brown bacon and drain. Cook onion in some reserved bacon grease. Combine the rest of ingredients and pour in a greased casserole dish. Bake uncovered at 350 for 1 hour.
