kitchen Angst!

This picture was taken of my own line of Pickles and jams. I started Green square (a canning company) three years ago while I was running a small cafe here in West Hollywood. Unfortunately as soon as the cafe went under I lost not only my home as Green Square, but also the kitchen I used to produce it. I have tried to find a new home to no avail (so far). I will continue to look and hope someday soon Green Square will rise again!

I made everything using all natural ingredients, organic produce whenever possible, and no commercially processed Pectin. This may sound extreme, and it is. I just wanted to be able to say that mine was just as good as Gramma’s. I know in the link I put up, It states that all pectins are natural, that is not completely true. many do have added preservatives or stabilizers. This is what I was tiring to avoid.
I want to explore this almost lost art in some of my future blogs. I really enjoy making my own preserves as well as having my friends and family begging me for more when their “stash” runs out. Yea, I’m the pusher man!

I have found this kitchen rental situation hear in Los Angeles, This just may be the way I go. I just have to find the money to get it going. I know I will, it just may take a little more time.

Like I said I will be coming back to this subject a lot in the coming weeks. If you have any specific questions, shoot then out to me. That would give me some great ideas for” jumping off points” in my future installments!

I look forward to hearing from you soon.
