Canning Jelly ~ Crocheting Teacher Gift

I added 3 ½ more pints of grape jelly to our cupboard.  I would like to try making sugar free jellies/jams soon also.



I finished a hot pad set for my 3rd grader’s teacher, and am contemplating making her a 3rd surprise one to go with it.

Homemade Organic Graham Crackers

I made my first batch of homemade organic graham crackers.  I have to say I will have a hard time not eating all of these before the kids get home.  They are unbelievably good. 

Between the wheat thins and these, I now have replaced 2 more processed foods we used to buy.  They are much better tasting and much cheaper to make.  They do take time, but they are well worth it.

Dough before it was rolled out as instructed by the recipe I used.
