So it's been a SUPER BUSY month.

In August alone, I've done more than I can even remember.

I made 9 jars of blackberry jam and 2 jars of blackberry lemon sage.  More fridge pickles (including onions) than I can count - we've been refilling the jars with more veggies!

I made 2 Tomato, Bacon, Feta stratas, mountains of fried eggplant, and a quart of arrabiata.

I made 6 pints of garlic dill pickles.

We started a crock of sauerkraut.

I dried to huge bunches of parsley for in soups later.

We went to GenCon.

I made a scrapbook/autograph book for my nephew.

I made 7 jars of carrot cake jam and 4 pints of bread and butter pickles.

We drove to New Hampshire to see two dear friends get married.

I finally delivered the wine jellies to Dave's sister and brother-in-law.

I made another batch of carrot cake jam.

I made 2 pints of salsa with the salsa mix my sister gave me.

Next on the list, Carrot Fennel soup.

After that, September promises pears and apples, and a bonus week of vacation that was only supposed to be 3 days.

And I do intend to share the strata recipe, although, if you're a smart cookie and you know how to make French toast, I bet you can figure it out!
