Food & Drink - 5 November 2007

As an inexpensive gift for mine and my fiance's coworkers I am making my famous apple butter and clay pot bread for Christmas this year. Last year, I simply put the apple butter in jars and advised them to keep it refridgerated...and I was so nervous for several weeks that someone was going to call me up bc they got sick (which they didn't). This year I would like to properly sterilize and can it for them. I DO NOT have a machine but I have heard that with fruits there is an effective method by boiling. Can anyone give me the steps to do so, so that I can give them sterilized, sealed and SAFER gifts? Thanks in advance!!!
(p.s. if ingredients prove important to the process, they are simply: apples, sugar, ground cinnamon, ground cloves and salt.)

I've been doing it for almost 3 years now. Lately, I've left the shrimp out because my girlfriend is allergic. :^(
I put in 1/2 pound of bacon just to see how it'd turn out. Does anyone else use bacon in their Jambalaya? Here's what I put in:

Sausage
boneless chicken
Green pepper
Onion
garlic
1 can tomato sauce
1 can tomato paste
thyme
black pepper
other assorted seasonings to taste

Sorry for lack of exact measurements - this is from memory. Is there anything you'd add or take out? Thanks!

My 14 year old daughter who is mentally handicapped is in a regular ed home ec class. She has to do a presentation of a favorite recipe with at least 4 ingredients. I don't know if she can handle a mixer without me there... but she wants to make cookies. Any suggestions? Even if it isn't cookies, I'll take suggestions for something easy and fun.
Thanks.

I just bought a random fruit from the fruit and veg stall near me. It's yellow-orange on the outside, and has a dried leafy top like a tomato. I peeled it (but had to use a veg peeler), and the inside was textured a bit like a potato. It was very sweet, and I really like it. All I know is it began with a k. Can anybody tell me what it is?

Hey sweet toothers galore!
I recently came upon a isle in the grocery store called, 'the Freezer Isle' upon my good fortune of finding such a beautiful isle, I decided to try each and every kind of ice cream. I tried every one and decided that strawberry, chocolate and vanilla are the top best, oarnge cream almost there.
So now, I have a question for you. Yes you. Which is better? Strawberry, choclate or vanilla?
The future of ice cream is in your hands.
Best wishes from the freezer isle,
Lola
