Rachel Lusk will only have her popular pizza crusts and bagels on the Market
until the end of January!!
She’s currently 6 weeks from her due date, and expecting Baby #2!
Thankfully she packages the pizza crusts in convenient freezer bags, so they’re perfect to stocking up!!
And her bagels also work in the freezer as well, if you put them in a freezer bag first ;-)

Miami County Locally Grown: How to Preserve a Husband
I simply can’t resist sharing something this good -
When searching for some new jam recipes recently, I stumbled upon an old leaflet that left me in stitches when, unsuspectingly glancing thru the pages, the title “How to Preserve a Husband” of course caught my attention. It was listed among the Corn Cob Jelly and Apple Mint Jelly, as unassuming as you please – and I was totally unprepared to find such a gem among Mrs. Nobbia Ownby’s Smoky Mountain favorites!
Apparently no introduction, warning, or explanation thought necessary, as it was for the Sweet Tater Butter, Pear Honey, and Apricot Conserve ;-)
How to Preserve a Husband
Be careful in your selection,
Do not choose too young
It is better to have none than not learn how to cook them properly.
Some women keep them in a stew;
And some keep them constantly in hot water.
Others prefer to freeze them.
And oh, how some just insist on keeping them in a pickle, but this makes them sour, hard and bitter.
A great many of them are entirely spoiled by mismanagement in cooking.
They are so tender and good, even poor varieties of husbands may be made sweet by garnishing with patience.
Sweeten well with love, and season with kisses.
A little spice will improve a husband – but it must be used with judgment.
If thus treated you will find him digestible and will keep indefinitely. (!!!)

Good evening!
This is just a friendly reminder to place your order online for this week. Market ordering will close tonight (Tuesday) at 10 pm. Please don’t forget to order! But if you do forget, give me (Linda) a call Wednesday morning. I will most likely be able to get hold of the farmers and place a late order for you.
Remember to hit that last “submit” button. I really dislike disappointing a customer who comes to market, only to find no order in their name because they didn’t hit the last button. When your order is placed, you will receive an email confirmation. If for any reason you fail to receive this confirmation, please contact Linda as soon as you realize it’s missing.
Also please go to our Facebook page and like, comment, and share this week’s post. Facebook isn’t allowing me to post on multiple sites, or sometimes post multiple photos. So please help us spread the word. Surveys indicate that word of mouth is the most effective form of advertisement. Please help us advertise our fantastic growing market!
See you on Thursday!
Blessings,
Michael & Linda
