I got a small batch of sweet cherry jam (reduced sugar) done. I most likely won't make any more considering I had to buy the cherries. Our cherry tree died for some reason, and I didn't have the time to plant one this spring. Hopefully next year.
I'm obsessed with these dip bowls by Pioneer Woman. Love them for cracking eggs before adding them to a recipe.
Breakfast - sweet potato hash (with an extra reg. potato because that is what I had), with eggs on top. I added jalapeno for a kick and it was so good.
It's been confirmed that we had a Derecho. The area of Amish country around Berlin, OH had so much damage from the storms that they called a Level 3 and no one was allowed on the roads, to allow for cleaning up the debris. Hotels, and motels closed, businesses closed due to the damage and power outages.
I went out to the tomatoes, and I literally almost lost my boots in one patch, and could not get into the other at all. It was under water. I will go out early this morning, and see if I can get into at least one and tie up plants. Not sure it will happen.
Not the best photo, but dinner was chicken/apple/cranberry/pecan/blue cheese. Very good on a hot day.
I like to keep bottles of ice water on hand for our mower guy and our hired help for other work around here, and it was already up in price to $5.29 a pack. Horrible!
Today's heat will be worse than yesterday. I will be outside soon to trim rose bushes, but will be back inside if the tomatoes are too wet.
