This is a little bit different from the Sloppy Joe recipe from the previous one. I usually make a big patch of this and freeze some of it, so when I need a quick meal, I just have to unfreeze it and warm it up. So get your Crockpot out, and let us get cooking!…
This fall has been amazing with the fruits! My hubby and his friends took over 500 kg apples and pears for pressing on Friday and we ended up with 365l of apple juice. 150l of it will be made to apple cider. A new project that the men have. Looking forward to seeing and of…

Field fresh asparagus is all over the place. Last weekend we had friends over for lunch and I prepared this simple pizza…

The soup is made of green peas in Finland, whereas in Sweden and Denmark, also yellow peas are used. Recipes vary also. In Finland,…
