So, here we are Friday night canning again. It's so nice to do it when Josh can help and when I know the kids won't be up before I'm done. It's after midnight and the last canner of peaches is almost done. Josh got a little excited about the peaches when he saw how nice they looked at the grocery store and bought 3 of them. (They had looked really green last week.) We ended up with 32 jars! That'll last a while:). Last night we were up past midnight canning Chokecherry juice. Josh and I are pretty tired, but it feels really good to get it done.
We had an amazing farmer's market again today. I had made a batch of Chokecherry syrup and a batch of CC Jelly this week to sell....I sold out of both plus 8 loaves of bread & most of the veggies I brought! It's really nice to see the fruits of our labor turn into dollar bills! (Hopefully the dollar bills will turn into a new washer and dryer this winter. Mine are slowly ummm...deteriorating? Josh already replaced the belt in the dryer a year or so ago, but now it's making a thumping noise...some days louder than others. The washer has been working well lately, but sometimes it stops spinning-when full of water-and I have to pick it up a little and drop it to get it to start again.:) I just hope they both last until we're ready to get new ones.)
Well, the canner is done. Time to go to bed! Good Night!
