Gooooooddddd EEEvveeNNInngg!!! well I put up my black berry jam yesterday..did 3 batches..got 12 1/2 pints and 2 quarts..(couldn't find any jars small enough..so they will go to big families this year..I put them with my strawberry jam...I had a bit leftover for me..and I had some of it today..yummo!!!
I love the glow of this little lamp on my hutch..don't you all just love ambient lighting? just adds a nice warm glow to anything..
I did a swap with Margie of Hungry hook primitives..I wanted wool and she got my little dustpan penny cover...I love my wool and I can't wait to use it..Margie your package went out on monday.;) thank you again for agreeing to do a swap..a gal can never have tooo much wool.;)
I did some sewing today for Carmen and her new grandson..mailing them off tomorrow and hoping they get there by saturday...will share these when she gets them.;)
