How to Preserve a Husband

Recipe from Jenny's Grandma Knobbe

Note: The poorest varieties may be improved by this process and kept for years in any climate.

Ingredients

First use care and get one. 😊
 


Instructions

• Do not choose too young, too old, spoiled, too green or too fresh.
• Make your selection carefully and let it be final, otherwise they will not keep. Like wine, they improve with age.
• Do not pickle or put in hot water. This only makes them sour, hard and bitter.
• All varieties can be made sweet, tender and good by garnishing them with Patience, sweetened with Love and seasoned with Kisses.
• Wrap them in a mantle of charity.
• Keep warm in a steady flame of domestic devotion and serve with peaches and cream.
