Distances to Everything in Madisonville!

I am excited about Walk Score. Walk Score is a service to show how far it would be to walk to places in the community. Now our score is 29 (I hope I am remembering correctly); I got so excited because I can show you that Earlington is nestled from the hustle and bustle of the town but not too far that within 5-10 minutes you can be at what was OUR favorite grocery store~MarketPlace. . .Here's the link: http://www.walkscore.com/get-score.php?lat=37.274835&lng=-87.51036&utm_source=zillow.com&utm_medium=ws_api&utm_campaign=ws_api&street=206+E+Main+St+Earlington+KY+42410 Imagine that you lived in the hub of the bigger town Madisonville with the noises that traffic can bring (Blackwell's Diner and the Historical Soc are downtown; the BP Gas is NOT the station close to the house, so no worry...you are close to gas~AND the BP is near our favorite grocer!!)...not in our little berg...yeah, you can hear the train and some cars as they turn to go N on St Hwy 41, but while I don't have numbers, it's not a "freeway" kind of pattern...the Pennyrile Parkway is generally used for most N-S travel from Hopkinsville (south of Earlington) to Madisonville. I hope this is helpful. There is the Earlington post office a block up from our home and the bank a block the other direction...a block up and one over is the convenience/gas store...

Earlington is a ONE REDLIGHT town!

I always liked that! HOPE you will too! Come see our home!

Pear Relish

10 ½ pounds pears, peeled, cored and chopped

6 cups chopped onions (about 6 medium)

6 cups chopped sweet red peppers (about 6 medium)

6 cups chopped sweet green peppers (about 6 medium)

1 bunch celery, chopped (discard leaves and coarse stalks)

3 cups sugar

1 tablespoon allspice

1 tablespoon salt

5 cups vinegar

Combine all ingredients and let stand overnight. Bring mixture to boil. Pack into hot jars leaving ¼ inch space. Adjust caps. Process 20 minutes in boiling water bath. Makes about 9 pints

My notes – If I don’t have red peppers, I use 6 green instead (12 peppers)

Use a vinegar (I prefer apple cider vinegar, but it does darken mixture) of a least 5% acidity. I use a food grinder to corsley grind all ingredients except spices. This relish is better if you wait about a month to use to let flavors blend. Very good to use in tuna salad, on hot dogs and a side relish with beans. Place in refrigerator after opening.

Pickled Pears

12 pounds peeled pears. (If small leave whole, larger pears cut in quarters)

3 cups sugar

1 tablespoon mixed pickling spice

1 teaspoon whole cloves

1 piece ginger root (I use powdered ginger ½ teaspoon)

½ cup thinly sliced lemon

2 ½ cups water

1 ½ cups vinegar

Peel and prepare pears. Put spices in cheesecloth bag. ( I don’t use a bag) Put all ingredients except pears in a container and boil 5 minutes. Add pears and cook gently for approximately 15 minutes until pears are tender. Carefully remove pears. Repeat until all pears are cooked. Pour boiling liquid over pears. Cover and let stand 12 – 18 hours in a cool place. Pack pears into hot jars being careful not to tear them. Leave ¼ inch space. Bring pickling liquid to a boild and pour over pears leaving ¼ space. Remove air bubbles. Process pints and quarts 15 minutes in boiling water bath. Yield about 3 pints.

Notes: These are best if allowed to cure for a month before using. I like to put them in the refrigerator and eat cold. If you are preparing them for Christmas, put a small amount of red or green food coloring in them when preparing to make them look more festive.

Fruit Trees and Wow!

Three brown grocery sacks of pears enough to make your mouth water? What about apples so tasty you can't help but pick 'em straight from the tree to eat? There is a bearing tree of EACH in the quaint backyard!

I can post some great recipes for those pears~we liked them cooked.
Peal, slice and sweeten to your particular taste (somewhere up to about 1c. of sugar)
Put into a 4 qt pot with a tight lid or even in your crock pot~
slow cook until the fruit is tender. You can add cinnamon or other spices too before you cook~yum!!

They make wonderful cobblers or pies. I love "pear relish" and check back for my mom's recipe!
