Recipe blocks...

Here's another sample of what will be at the show!

Canning up date...

Like you all know, this was my first year canning, and I FELL IN LOVE! It was so much fun. I loved every part of it: going to the orchard to pick the fruit, canning with friends, canning by myself until midnight, teaching a class to the ladies at church- it was all great. Thank you Michelle & Tam for helping me get started!! I canned 400 jars this Summer and I can tell you I am actually very tired now. Over 100 jars were with/for other people, so I must admit, I have a pretty nice amount! It was really addictive, and I loved it (except for the mess in the kitchen)
This Summer I was able to do: corn, peaches, pears, applesause and then I still have onions and potatoes to work with! It was a great Summer, now I can't wait for next year!

If you get bored on Saturday...

I posted all the info about the craft show on the very last post except the time. It will be from 9:30 am-4:00 Pm. I hope it will be a success, if not, you know what you'll be getting for Christmas!!!

Craft Show here we come...


I was really excited a few months ago when I recieved my business name for all the art/craft things. Whoopsy Daisy is the name and I hope to have the web site running in awhile, but as trav and I are finding out, websites are tricky! (Audra, I need you!) This Saturday I'll be in my first craft show and I am really excited. I needed something for me, so for the past 6 weeks, I've been going like crazy trying to get things made. If you need afordable gift idea's for Christmas/birthday's/baby shower's, come on out! I'll be at: First Congregational Church 55 S. Midland Blvd. in Nampa. (A block away from Lonestar/Midland Blvd.)

Grace in the leaves...


I took this one of Grace yesterday, I can't believe how fast she has grown up! A part of me is sad, but I'm so excited as she grows into a little person. We're trying for another baby, so I'll get my "little person" fix in awhile. I'll keep you posted!
