I know the water in your area causes all kinds of headaches with ice makers. We had an ice machine installed in our kitchen when we built our house 25 years ago and have replaced it once. It has been...

We talked about having a big ice machine put in but the water is going to do the same thing to it and since the stand alone machines cost more, it just isn’t worth it knowing we would have to repair it...

I made a lot of “kraut” over before we moved overseas. Still have my big crock. May try it again this year when our little stand gets in cabbage (when the weather cools enough for growing cabbage!) I...
