RE: Canning Bath Not Long Enough
I've recently been canning tomatoes too, so I can compltely understand your concern. I looked in my Ball Blue Book of canning, and I couldn't find anything about reprocessing the food if it wasn't in long enough. It does say this however; If a lid does not seal within 24 hours, the product can be immediately reprocessed. To reprocess the product, remove the lid and reheat the food and/or liquid as recommended by the recipe. Pack food into clean hot jars. Place a new, heated lid on the jar and adjust band. Reprocess the product using the canning method and full length of processing time recommended by the recipe. I don't know if this helps or not, as I know your lids sealed, but the hardest part may be getting the jars reheated. You could always put the tomatoes in new sterile jars and redo them. I did mine yesterday in a water bath for an hour and a half. Good luck! ... View related article.

RE: Starting a Butterfly Garden
I have recently planted a butterfly garden and have done quite a bit of research on what kinds of flowers they like. Here are a few of the best ones:

Butterfly Bush (Buddleia Spp)
Purple Coneflower (Echinacea Purpurea
Blazing Star (Liatris Spp)
Black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia Spp)
Pincushin Flower (Scabiosa Caucasica)
Verbenas
Milkweed (aka butterfly weed)

I hope this helps! Good luck on your garden ... View related article.

RE: Homemade Wet Tissues
I don't know if this will work for your cold, but I have a recipe for homemade baby wipes. They are safe and gentle, and may help with your chapped nose. Here it is:

1/2 a roll of Bounty select-a-size paper towels
2 Cups water
2 Tbsp. Baby Wash
1 Tbsp. Baby Oil

Mix liquids together, and pour over the paper towels after you have cut them in half the short way. After you pour the liquid on reach in and pull out the cardboard roll. They will roll out and tear from the middle. I have mine in a number 9 tupperware container and it's all I use for my kids. Get feeling better soon!

RE: How do hydrangeas get their color?
I think I read somewhere that they get their color based on how acidic the soil is. If the soil is more acidic, the flowers are more pink in color. If it's more basic they are more purple in color. I think I read about it in Better Homes & Gardens. They have an excellent website where you may be able to find further info. Good luck! ... View related article.
