We had a family gathering September 16, in honor of Paul and Sue Devlin's 29th wedding anniversary.

I tried some new recipes including Peanut Butter Cup Pie.

• 1 and 1/2 cups cold milk
• 1 package (small) instant chocolate pudding
• 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons chopped peanut butter cups, divided
• 8 oz. whipped topping, thawed,
• one chocolate crumb crust (8 or 9 inch)

In a bowl, whisk the milk and pudding mix for two minutes. Let stand for two minutes. Fold in 1 cup of chopped peanut butter cups. Fold in whipped topping. Spoon into crust. Cover and freeze for six hours or overnight. Remove from freezer 15-20 minutes before serving. Garnish with the remaining peanut butter cups.

Trenching in Vegetables for winter storage in earlier times ... Trenches are frequently used for the storage of celery, cabbage, Chinese cabbage and root crops. They are dug deep enough so the celery in a standing position does not come to the surface of the ground. Trenches for celery or Chinese cabbage are best when not more than 24 inches wide, with nearly vertical sides to give maximum frost protection by the earth. After the produce is in the trench, slats such as 2 by 4's are laid across the trench to support a tight covering of boards. A strip of roofing paper over the boards helps to keep out water and dirt. As danger of freezing approaches, the boards are covered with straw, hay or leaves and some dirt to hold it in place. Many keep celery this way for use during the Christmas season.
