This group knows food as well as it knows machines. We'll all be fine here this winter--I've made 3 batches of peach jam, one of strawberry and one of blackberry jelly in the last couple of days. Of course, I've been sampling all along. . . .

I'm not into sodas. I like my coffee and teas; but for you, I'll bring some pepsi. You know that stuff is bad for ya.

The other day, I made red beet chocolate cake that was a big hit. My husband hates red beets, but he loved the cake.

If you look in my profile's my pages under recipes section, there are two recipes. One the Red Beet Chocolate cake, which is extremely yummy! And a Cinnamon/Ginger tea. I cut the sugar amount way down, just a 1/4 cup. This tea served cold is very refreshing!

I rescued an old green 1960s something Kenmore from the trash today. For now it is on the back porch - smells pretty bad looks like they used the throat plate for an ash tray. I know it turns. I haven't had time to look it over much or clean it yet - looks like it might do a couple zigzag stitches. It is missing a few parts but I think I have enough to get it going. It amazes me the difference 10 or 15 years technology makes - and it didn't really improve did it?

The Free #5 is a great machine. I have used mine to piece with a lot. Mine is on page 550 and 627.

Anyone in the Baltimore/Washington DC area looking for a singer 201 to treadle may want to see if this is a 201.
From the top flat spool area and decals, it looks like it could be a 201.

And another good deal:
