Oh geez…thanks Laura. When I chatted with someone from Rustoleum, they told me that when it cured they believed it would be safe for birds! Now I’m not sure what to believe. ARGH!

Hi Chris,

I’m so tickled that you soldiered through despite the skepticism! I was met with the same ‘Peanut Butter What?’ look from Terry, but it is now one of our favorite soups.
Can’t wait to hear what your SIL thinks!

Thanks so much for sharing the comment.

Hugs, Lynn

Good Morning Astrid!

Wow! What a lovely message. Thank you! I love hearing that folks enjoy these recipes as much as we do.

You were wise to stash some of that apple bread, it will disappear quickly!

And that’s funny aobut the Peanut Butter Soup and your English friends! Are you in the U.K. or Europe? In all honesty, I don’t know anyone who isn’t a bit skeptical when first hearing of the soup. But, boy, it is delicious, isn’t it?

And that Split Pea soup is just so comforting, isn’t it. I wouldn’t have thought ot add a rutabaga, though I know that adding potatoes is quite typical.

I’ll email you the truffles recipe, I’m not sure why it didn’t download and print.

Thanks so much for commenting! It means the world to me.

After chomping down at least 3 slices, I decided to divide and wrap it into 3 parts and put it in a freezer container. I made the peanut butter soup and it is now one of my favourites. Of course, my English friends are horrified! Also made the Split Pea recipe which is the same as mine minus 2 cups of diced rutabaga and a large diced potato but that is not for a crock pot so I’ll replace mine with yours. I’ll try the leek soup next. Now I couldn’t download and print the Truffles though I hit the print button. Will try again

Your idea about the diy bird bath inspired me to try and fix mine to be more accessible to birds. Mine is glazed ceramic and the birds never use it. My husband thought it might be because the finish is too slippery. I checked with Rustoleum to see if they have a product that might add texture. I was told that they don’t have ANY products that are approved for use in a bird bath or have been approved as animal safe. I just thought you should know. I’m sure you don’t want to be poisoning your robins and chickadees.

My husband was doubtful about it, even told his sister who’s response was “Why?”.
Happy to say we really enjoyed it! When my sister in law called to see how it was it got rave reviews from Mr. Skeptic!
I look forward to serving it to company in the future.
