Fowlers Vacola have changed their bottling instructions VASTLY due to the realisation. Fowlers Vacola. The main home canning supplier in Australia since 1915 has been Fowlers Vacola, founded by Joseph Fowler. Fowlers sells both jars, and.

Reminds me of the canned fruit salads where the grapes are firm and the bananas are mushy.but still. It's true, I have a very severe case, I'm infatuated with my Fowlers Vacola.

I wander around the fruit market getting sidetracked from what I should be buying, instead veering off towards whatever fruit is on special this particular visit. Earlier in the week it was peaches. At $2.57/kilo I just couldn't walk on! Glorious, glorious stone fruit, how I love to take a big, juicy bite out of thee. Last week it happened to be apricots. A whole box of them from the Victoria Market! (Well, granted, the box was only 5kg, but still, 'box' sounds so much more grander doesn't it?!). I've discovered fruit inspired excursions to the Vic Market are soooo much fun, things are just so cheap and twice, no three times the size of fruit commonly seen elsewhere.

I hope your sanity is well preserved. Xx I love your squeezo, dixiebelle! As for the fruit, we (I!) eat quite a lot of it.on cereal, with yoghurt and baked in pies/crumbles. Do you raid the op shops for jars? Sometimes the odd oppy will have a stash out the back that they will give you for free, a true treasure for us! Teehee, Kim, a word of advice.they are around all the time on ebay and sometimes op shops, too!
