      I have a Boos Block 24 x 18 board that I use for my bread making. It's good for rolling out dough for cinnamon buns too. It's on the heavy side and I really don't have storage space so it sits on the counter and also gets used for other things too, like cutting veggies although I never use any of my wood boards for raw meat. I keep it in good condition by occasionally treating with food grade mineral oil and Boos board cream with is bees wax and mineral oil.

      What I like about wood boards is, if the surface gets scratched up from knifes or whatever, I can give it a sanding and return it to new or near new condition.

        I wonder if it might work better with canned peach pie filling instead of plain canned peaches.

              My brother came over and I fired up the bbq and made brats and steak. And a huge salad.

                Sounds reasonable to me. I often find myself cutting a recipe in half, and if the whole recipe calls for 3 eggs I will either use one egg only, or one egg and a tablespoon of flax seed with 2 tablespoons of water, or one whole egg and an egg white, all depending on my mood and what I'm making.

                  The more I think about it, the more I think it could be infested, as in it got infested with microbes that made it turn sour. Sours are kinda popular.

                    Maybe they meant "infested", lol. I've never seen that term before.

                        I made a peach cobbler using canned peach pie filling. I used a recipe I found on the Duncan Heinz website although I seasoned it my way. I'm of the opinion that cloves and almond extract go great with peaches so I used a 1/4 teaspoon of ground cloves and 1/8 teaspoon of almond extract (a little goes a long way). It was a real easy recipe. I've never made a cobbler before. I'll serve it vanilla ice cream and a sprig of fresh mint.

                              Yes, you do have to watch out for bunnies. Plant some for them and some for you. About 10 years ago, when I was still growing my tomatoes in the ground, I went out there one evening to water them and saw a rabbit in the next row close to a plant. Then his nose started twitching and the next thing I know his mouth is on a tomato. Which happened to be the first ripe tomato of the season, I was going to pick it the next day. It dawned on me that this was a Kodak moment. I set the hose down, walked back to the house, got the camera and changed the lens, carefully walked back out and hoping the rabbit was still there. He was.

                                Now I'm more confused, two of them are now showing but they weren't before. Here's the 3rd.

                                  I tried to post 3 photos in the above post, only the last one is showing, not sure what I did wrong. I'll try again.
