The Galiano Club

Remember when this was held? Last spring seems a long time ago but we have made great strides on our cook book. "Food
Forever - Galiano Cooks".... Thanks to all those who did interviews, took photos and did illustrations and to those who are now putting the book together. More with next picture

The previous 2 photos's posted are 1. Elizabeth Latta teaching about food saving and 2 Elizabeth Latta describing how peas climb. The next few will come as I find more text.

Looks like a great day when this picture was taken. It seems that with each picture I have to write 25 words, will try to get more info on photos next time.

I have a number of great photo's from Janice and will share them as soon as I figure out how to do so. Right now they are too big to be an attachment. I was wrong, one did appear, more later. Carol

Tina: What are your favourite recipes?

“I do have a food memory, and it's about lack of food. I was a child in the 1930's when there was a nasty depression, as we're having a recession now as they call it. But then it was The Great Depression.

Jacob: When you were a child, how did you get your food?

When you were a child how did you get your food?
She didn't have stores, they had cows. Milking cows and meat cows. They had chickens. They went hunting, looking for deer and grouse. Her dad, when he got home, right away he guts the deer, and the offering to her mother is the liver. That was the prime part of the deer.They made it hot. They always had flower and sugar.

Here's a Food Forever email from Janice, and one of the great photos she took last Foraging Friday, April 24.

Hi everyone,

Things are really getting exciting and I feel like I'm bursting at the seams so thought I'd share some images with you all about the goings on.
