I think it’s vegetable soup

Habitant is split pea. It's one of the basic survival foods that is used in times of crisis (hope I'm explaining that right, that's what it says in my cookbook). It's very nourishing and sustaining. I now cook for 4 of our disabled/low income friends and pea with smoky ham soup is what was on the menu today. I also put in micro-chopped carrot, potato and onion.

Someone told me that bean with ham (bacon) soup is also a Habitant food. I'm not sure but it's also one I use for our friends. Made that one 3 days ago.

 

When our friends go to the food bank beans, split peas and rice are a few of the staples given. Sustaining staples.

However, we do have fog ...

Habitant is a Brand name ( owned by Campbell's ). They do have veg., minestrone, and pea soup with ham, etc.

Ya, I think Cambell's did take the name.

 

Here's what my Ball Complete Book of Preserving book has to say, just in case anyone's interested.

 

Here's the recipe too. When I make it I omit the allspice because I'm not a fan, added micro chop potato and a Tbs of chopped garlic, instead of water I use bone broth, making it more nutritious. I pressure can it for one of the brothers because he lives in an RV with limited frig space. This one and the bean with bacon (Campbell's copycat recipe) pressure can really good. Multiplying the recipe will make a case of pints at a time.

As of this moment it's 45 days, 23 hours and 47 minutes until the shortest day of the year. And 105 days until February 15 the when I can notice days getting longer.

Sadly I always keep track of how long it is until the shortest day of the year, because I detest winter. Long, dark, cold, wet. Not for me.

Get Lost

Reminds me of old order Mennonites. A grade 8 teacher related her experience with some.

Horse and buggy. No power in house. Modern barn and equipment. Deep freezer in barn.

 

My experience was - father - horse and buggy. Mother - Buick - not black, son - pickup - not black.

Saw one group with brown horses going to church passing in opposite direction, another with black horses going

to their church.

Someone I worked with - drove old Harleys, had a beard but not married to girl he was living with. Family upset about the beard.
