What we have been up to....

I LOVE the fall.  Not only do I love the weather but I LOVE  as Mr Putter would put it "all the juicy things to eat!" (Mr Putter books are some of my favorite children's books)

I got these beauties from a neighbor...in hindsight I should have taken all those tart little green guys out, but it still turned out good.

I borrowed this guy from the same neighbor.

mmmmm, "homemade" grape juice.  VERY nostalgic.

 I LOVE grape jelly.  I had never made it before and had a few gallons of grape juice on my hands.  Is that like making lemonade out of lemons??  I guess it can't be, 'cause, since when is having gallons of fresh juice a bad thing?  

 Walmart had peaches for .50 a  pound! I bought 10 pounds and I had to do something with them before my daughter ate them all.

 *sigh* even messy, it is a beautiful kitchen.  I can't wait to get that backsplash done.

There is something seriously satisfying about seeing a counter full of "canned" goods.  Only freezer jams here, I think that they taste so much better than the processed variety.  I can't wait for my counters to be full of canned apple pie filing!!  On to find some cheap apples!
