2024.

While some of you may be well into the new year, our house has only recently gotten in the groove of what the new year brings because the girls *finally* returned to school. Now I can focus on Potlicker. This year I will be focused on quality, not trying to keep up with quantity. After some of…

Adorable Gift Sets & a Biscuit Recipe

I blinked and Fall is here. The Summer heat has broken and the Winter snow has kissed the mountains. There is a steady buzz of energy as we build to the end of year Holidays. This season in life brings me deeper to my roots as I have become more of a care taker for…

Back to Flatlander Status

Hello my friends. It’s my slowest season of the year and it always gives me some time to reflect a bit on what I learned last year. Honestly the turn from December to January happens so fast for me every year, I barely have time to process the reflection. Spring as the new year makes…

Marmalade.

Born and raised north of Tampa Florida, I watched the orange groves around us get cleared for progress. We too were part of that progress I suppose. Once a rural citrus and hemp farming town, Lutz, has been swallowed by suburbia. Our family property once thrived with more than 20 kinds of citrus, now only…

Can I still say Happy New Year?!

By now you may have noticed that we pretty much took a hard break from social media at the end of the year. We? I mean ME. All these 12 years the social media has been done by me (except two projects).  I love the creation & sharing of beautiful or interesting things but honestly…

Hindsight is 2020

In a year of challenges we made changes for the better. Looking forward to making more jam.

Jam Out – Change in the Time of Covid

Change in the time of COVID. It is with some sadness I have to tell you that I am no longer producing jams & jellies. In the past few years I have weathered changes and challenges I never imagined and this one, in this moment, has hit me particularly hard. In the weeks before COVID19…

Marmalade Ice Box Cake

Use a little, use a lot! Use up to 8oz of jam for a fruitier flavor and make this easy peasy by using frozen whipped topping instead of making whipped cream. Ice Box Cake 1 cup whipping cream 1 8oz package of cream cheese, softened 1/2c Potlicker marmalade or jam ½ tsp lemon extract (optional)…

Mile High Drunken Chocolate Cake

By far the richest cake I’ve ever made, this is layer upon layer of chocolate, cream, and Irish booze. Serve this dessert up on large plates in honor of St Patrick’s Day or make a meal of it any time by topping it with a scoop of coffee ice cream. Do as I say not…

Peanut Butter & Potlicker Jelly Cups

Customize cravings with your very own Peanut Butter & Jelly cups. With dozens of Potlicker Jam flavors available, there is a PB & Potlicker combo for everyone. We had some DELICIOUS chocolate peanut butter from Cape May Peanut Butter Co. that went into the first batch. We then made a second batch with plain jane…

Pickled Cherries

As I typed this I kept typing out cheeries instead of cherries. That might be a subconscious reaction to how these make me feel. Juicy red orbs that are delicately sweet but distinctively briny. These beautiful cherries came to me from Washington state. Now I have cherry trees growing in my yard in Vermont, but…
