Twagg, Thank you for doing this every week!
On the clothes pins...The Amish make a wooden clothes pin.  They are expensive, around  $22.00 per dozen.  I have used them for three years and have never broken one.  If you break it, send it back and they replace it.  They do an extra good job of holding fabric to the line in the wind.
Remember, Chicago was seeing a shortage on peanut butter.  Maybe it is the storage that the government is doing, who knows?  I have some heirloom  seed peanuts, in the fridge, just in case.  Wish we had planted them last year.  I was voted down.  Maybe a good thing, because making homemade peanut butter this year might have finished me off... Has anyone grown them here?  I know their are boiled peanuts all over the place, but what about the northern area of group?
