I'll spare you the photos of my messy kitchen, but the end result of a very, very messy kitchen was:
Thanks to a farmgirl barter (or two), I had fun gift giving lids for my jelly this Christmas.
This year I made my candy apple jelly using apple cider vs. apple juice. The kids love it! I need to make a second batch after the kitchen is all cleaned up too.
Now that I have given Mom her blanket, I can post a photo of it. I also gifted my brother a thin line (blue line) scarf (which I forgot to take a photo of).
I was given a pattern from a very good friend to crochet my brother's thin line scarf. I used royal blue and black for police colors and if you would like to know the significance of the "thin line" or "blue line" meaning click on "The Thin Blue Line (emblem)."
Today is Sunday, but Monday brings more baking needs: one daughter needs a birthday treat to take in tomorrow, one needs to bake something for Spanish class, and another needs to bring in a Mexican food dish for Spanish class also. I am considering (gulp) visiting the frozen section of the grocery store today, for at least one of these. There is only so much one person can do.
