Jewels of Summer


This is what kept me busy all September. By the end of August I was ready for a break-- but the garden won out. However, looking at these jewels of summer (or fall, as you may wish) supplies reward enough and they look so pretty I wanted to share the pictures. It will all taste wonderful this winter



and will bring back the senses and warmth
of summer. Canning brings me special pleasure
because it restores old memories of eating cold
peaches on a Sunday night in my childhood.

We did a lot of things besides garden this summer. In fact, besides watering there wasn't much to do till August. So check the next blog to see a photo journal of some of those activities.
