We had a fridge when I was about 10 years old. I remember my grandma's pantry under the stairs - a constant source of fascination for me as a child. It is good to make your own jams and preserves. I'm waiting for the plums to ripen on our tree to make some jam and chutney with:)Rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733563829902335223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3677036653941667811.post-73382349572765950622014-08-09T10:40:43.246-03:002014-08-09T10:40:43.246-03:00Tracy - I have to confess that I cheated with this...Tracy - I have to confess that I cheated with this photo, as it is one that I've posted previously! The photo I originally posted was accidentally deleted when Blogger went wobbly on me.....<br /><br />Tash - I remember the walk-in pantry in my grandmother's house and how much cooler it was in there, even in summer. I recall her setting jelly without using a fridge and keeping meat in there. That pantry fascinated me and it has long been my dream to have one of my own. <br /><br />Marie xCandytuft Cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13522342667927356588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3677036653941667811.post-75763070402509573752014-08-09T05:51:38.577-03:002014-08-09T05:51:38.577-03:00Hi Marie!

I love rhubarb and particularly with ginger (have you tried that combination?), though I imagine with strawberries would be just as tasty :) I love your pantry - after going from a kitchen that had only two tiny cupboards (the kitchen was about 5ft sq) to one with plenty, I am so appreciative of the space. I remember a walk-in pantry from my grandparents' house, which was a 1930s semi and one of my all-time favourite houses, which was always a good deal cooler (as it was built to be) so that you could keep food much longer in there.<br /><br />Best wishes,<br />Tash<br /><br />P.s. I'll email you soon :) It's all a bit whirlwind with visitors at the moment!VintagePrettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17417348122069803064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3677036653941667811.post-44612291145638704382014-08-08T08:59:37.376-03:002014-08-08T08:59:37.376-03:00Hi, Marie!

And this is the first summer (so far) I've not put up any jams or fruit butters. Sadly our little cube freezer in the basement conked out this week…and sadder still, we had to throw away a good bit of food. :o( It's been a mess, and we've had quite a time. Sooo we’re freezer shopping this weekend… LOL! :o) ((HUGS))Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09179096002434748927noreply@blogger.com
