After reading through the recipe and seeing some of the reviews, I realized that the writer is a Hoosier! Imagine my surprise when I saw "Jen Kershner" because I am a friend of Jen Beck's and I believe you're her sister-in-law! What a small world. :) Anyway, thanks for the recipe. It looks good and I'm excited to give it a try! ---Krista StubbsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08425978611796593631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36124766.post-35539722415213813592012-05-16T21:23:03.299-04:002012-05-16T21:23:03.299-04:00I add everything in the can.

But, this is the first time I've ever even looked at a blog like this, let alone joining in. I was just looking back through your blog, Jen, and happen to see the beetle pic. I was thinking spring and gardening after going to the home show! Again, sorry.

After, we went to one of the Paradise Cafes. I had the "Fire Roasted Tomato Soup" and loved it, so I went on line to find a similar recipe. I will be trying yours soon! I was looking back at your blog to June 2007 re: Japanese Beetles. Several years ago I picked zillions off my flowers spending hours daily doing it. We did two different thing the first year they were so bad on my roses and even zinnias. First, we did the "no-no" of using the attracting bags. Our property borders on a swampy area, so we hung the bags from a tree. However, we cut the bottom of the little bag and hung plastic bags (i.e. Wal-mart, etc.) from the top of the contraption. Hundreds of beetles, about two inches in the bottom of the bag, were attracted almost daily. I tied the bags and threw them in the trash every day (you can spray bug spray if necessary into the bag), trapping and killing thousands and changing out the bags! I did it all summer. I figured even if it did attract that year, it would be thousands that weren't breeding. Second, my husband got something called "milky spore," which is a fungus, from our gardening center. You put it on your lawn and it eventually spreads through the yard. (It's nothing you can see!) Anyway,the grubs eat or get infected by the fungus, the fungus spores burst inside of the grubs, killing the grubs and releases more spores into the soil. ANYWAY, we didn't have hardly beetles this last summer. So I don't know if that's why we had so few this year, or beetles are like locust and have a cycle!?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36124766.post-81462143518918416382009-02-01T09:59:00.000-05:002009-02-01T09:59:00.000-05:00One more question.. what store did you find the to...One more question.. what store did you find the tomatoes?Leannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12316272625415274383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36124766.post-25555998134599351652009-02-01T09:57:00.000-05:002009-02-01T09:57:00.000-05:00Too funny..
