I look forward to trying this. You can buy small, (relatively) inexpensive packets of spices at Fresh Market. There are also Indian grocery stores on Peachtree Industrial Blvd in both Suwanee and Duluth.

Comment on Learn about food from wartime Britain

Learning from Britain is actually learning from the USA. We had "Victory Gardens," chicken coops, rabbit hutches, and even the occasional goat or bovine right in people's yards. Now, it's hard to have a "Victory Garden" because of the laws and restrictions. A neighbor of ours had to cut down their little patch of corn - because it violated the 12" rule: nothing can grow higher than 12" except trees. In urban neighborhoods, keeping "farm animals" is forbidden. That includes chickens and rabbits - except for the stray pet rabbit and the wild rabbits, probably of pet stock that "got away."
Until the regulatory restrictions can be changed, "Victory Gardens" will remain at the small cabbage and tomatoes level - and just hope the environmental officer doesn't cite you for your tomatoes!

Anthony,
I am so sorry to hear about your leg accident! I actually found your while researching heirloom seeds. I have a niece (Pam Custer; Custer Family Farms) who also works with holistic farming methods, raised beds, moving pig pens, as chicken pens.
I am especially saddened for your loss of your farm for your whole family by a super road! After we have paved, cut, and polluted everything perhaps we will figure out we need to dig up the asphalt, replant, and nuture our home! Hope you new venture works well for you!
Warnly,
Andrea
PS. Love the recipes as I am an avid cook!

Anthony, I want you to know how much my family appreciates what you are doing. That last batch of steak we bought were the best I've ever eaten, including those purchased at fancy steak houses. Marinating the meat in brine was the ticket. The steaks were tender and perfectly seasoned.

My granddad and uncles were farmers. It isn't an easy life. We are so grateful that you and your family have the calling to till the soil and raise animals in the way God intended. Your efforts are a blessing, and we thank you.

I like your style, the fact that your site is a little bit different makes it so interesting, I get fed up of seeing same-old-same-old all of the time. I've just stumbled this page for you :-D
