kegs or Jars of kraut and pickles are added
to the collection. Large bins filled with APP
pies, the potatoes are dug, cabbage and car
rot stored. The nuts we gathered on one of
our picnics are hulleu and put away dry
and last but not least, a hog is butchered
and jars are filled with fresh lard and sau-
sages. 1t gives comfortable feeling to
have our cellar like that, when the wind is
blowing fiercely and there is snow and sleet
