The Bible is the Holy Spirit’s book! It is the instrument He uses to convict unbelievers of sin, righteousness, and judgment. It is the sword by which He energizes the proclamation of the gospel, piercing the hearts of the spiritually dead and raising them to spiritual life. It is the means by which He unleashes His sanctifying power in the lives of those who believe, growing them in grace through the pure milk of biblical instruction.

You asked me to look for Granny's chow-chow recipe, and here it is. I know
she always made sure to use a big enameled pot or a stainless steel one.
She said that aluminum would make the pickle discolor and turn dark.
Grind all vegetables and mix with 1/2 cup pickling salt. Let set overnight.
Next morning, place vegetables in a colendar and press down firmly to force
out as much of the brine as possible. Put spices in a cheesecloth and add
to the sugar and vinegar. simmer for 20 minutes. Add vegetables and boil
for 15 minutes. Pack into sterilized jars and seal at once.
Note: I haven't made this myself, but I ate a lot of it as a kid. I can
remember this always being on the table when she made pork chops. It
doesn't say how many jars this will fill, but it looks like it might be
8-10 pints.
I'll bet this could easily be cut in half. And I'll bet you could use the
food processor to "grind" the vegetables...an appliance Granny didn't have.
She used this big metal thing that had to clamp on to the kitchen table,
and you turned a handle to force the veggies through.
