out.\u00a0 When I opened them, I had to rinse them really well to use them.\u00a0 PLUS, after about 6 years, they have \u201cgrayed\u201d somewhat.\u00a0 I have to kind of sort them and discard the gray pieces.\u00a0 This week\u2019s final tally:\u00a0 20 pounds of potatoes = 33-pint jars.<\/p>\n<p>*\u00a0 AND I dehydrated some corn.\u00a0 It was $1.39 at Winco.\u00a0 (prices are climbing!!)\u00a0 This was all sparked by a recipe I found for Wild Rice and Vegetable soup.\u00a0 I\u2019ve included the recipe below.\u00a0 Add meat if you want.\u00a0 But I\u2019m thinking I\u2019ll make some \u201cMylar Meals\u201d and give them to my kids for Christmas.\u00a0 The recipe says it serves 6-8 (that will work for all my kids) and it only uses 1 TB\u00a0of corn, carrots, etc.\u00a0 So the 5 pounds of corn that I dehydrated should work.\u00a0 LOL<\/p>\n<p>*\u00a0 My garden is still producing.\u00a0 The cooler temps are allowing the plants to set fruit again.\u00a0 My lettuce is growing again.\u00a0 Here is an October guide for zones 9-10.\u00a0\u00a0<a
