"My life is good - really good!" ... (we're on a Nacho-Libre kick can you tell?)


IT WAS ALL WE HOPED IT WOULD BE! Nick: about three rounds into the ride said, "Mom, my hands hurt!" ???? I looked down and they were totally white and clenched... so being the good mom that I am I immediately pried them from the bar and made him hold them in the air for the whole next round... him screaming all the way! :)
DID A LITTLE CANNING YESTERDAY... ONE JAR HAD PEACHES AND RASPBERRIES


DECIDED TO FREEZE A FEW BLUEBERRIES... ANDY EATS THEM BY THE HANDFUL



OH AND AT THE PRODUCE STAND "pettinggill" THERE WERE THESE TOTALLY AWESOME FRUITS... DON'T THEY LOOK DELICIOUS


I BOUGHT 2 BOXES OF PEACHES FOR $24 AND GOT 24 BOTTLES AND A FEW PEACHES TO SPARE... YOU CAN'T BUY PEACHES THAT TASTE NEARLY AS GOOD AS THESE FOR $1 AT THE STORE. (well, the bottles and sugar... but still)


oh and lest you think I am a canner extrodinare... this was my first time bottling fruit. I was quite proud of myself that I could recall what I had only watched my mom do 27 years ago.

she was proud of me too... thanks mom!
