Product Review - Hurrikane Mason Jar Vacuum Sealer Kit

Image
We have been getting a bunch of products to review lately, thanks to our followers and subscribers. This particular review is on the Hurrikane Mason Jar Vacuum Sealer Kit. I do have a bag sealer that I use frequently but thought this jar sealer would be more convenient because it's small and takes up no space. Rhonda recently reviewed the Foodsaver, if you are interested read about it here  →  Product Review - FoodSaver V4400 . The original test I made was with lettuce. I had some cut-up  leftover  romaine lettuce and put it in a jar.   I used the wide-mouthed sealer along with the handheld pump. It worked well and sealed quickly. After I sealed the jar, I held the jar up by the lid to make sure it was sealed and put it in the refrigerator to test how long it would stay fresh before turning brown. After 4 days in the jar, it looked as good as it did when I sealed the jar.  Here's how it works ⮟ Package includes:  1 Wide Mouth Sealer 1 Regular Mouth Sea...

Wondering What To Do With All Those Zucchinis?

Image
****UDPATED 7/12/24**** I have a small garden and zucchini is part of that garden. I’m not sure what happened but when it started producing I only harvested 2 zucchinis. Then all of a sudden it started popping out a bunch and I’m thankful.  Did you know zucchini grows about 2” a day? Zucchini plants produce a lot of fruit and what do you do with them all? Here are some suggestions along with several of my favorite recipes. Bake Bread - I adore zucchini bread. It’s moist, sweet, and freezes well. Try this recipe: Zucchini Bread  from Dash of Sanity.  Serve It as a Side Dish - Baked Parmesan Zucchini from Damn Delicious  are crispy and super delicious.  Make Cupcakes - Sweet and delectable, especially with the caramel icing YUMM!!

DIY - How to Make an Airtight Lid for Any Bagged Item

Image
Would you like to know how to put a lid on all those bags of sugar, candy, cereal, etc.? Cathy found out a way and wants to share it with YOU! What you will need: A plastic bottle with a screw top. A bag of whatever you want to keep fresh or just pour-able. Instructions:  Take the wrapper off the plastic bottle.  Cut the top of the bottle and cutting it short helps with the process. With the lid off, thread the bag through the top. Fold the bag over the top enough to cover the thread. Push the screw top down over the bag and then screw the top on. The bag will twist with it but you can turn the bag and it will be fine. Try it out and let us know how it works for you!!
