Peaches, Beans and Mars

Peaches, Beans and Mars

What is the big deal about peaches, beans and Mars.

That is just what I have been busy doing.

 I order peaches from our local grocery store. 

4 Lugs of fresh Georgia peaches!

And in the start of a Wisconsin heat wave, I was busy canning peaches!

 After sweating away in the kitchen, the next day I took a trip to Mars.

Wishing you all a great weekend.

Blackberries

I am back.

We had a very nice time with family. I had a great time going blackberry picking with my mom. My mom is recovering from a very bad injury...so she did the driving and talking (to keep the bear away). I did the picking.

Stains on the fingers from picking.

Blackberry Jam...I made yesterday. Yum!

Peaches

Peaches!!

I have been busy canning green beans and peaches. God blessed us with a wonderful garden!

No, the peaches are not from the garden. :) We were blessed with wonderful peaches from our local market! 

How about you? Are you canning this week?

Grapes

Grapes!

We picked grapes at Cain's Apple Orchard. It was fun and delicious at the same time. We loved the flavor of this grape, Van Buren grapes.

Jelly and Grape Juice
