Could this be your home?
I had to share this postcard. It was the only one we bought on our recent road trip. I took a picture of it in the car, on the road trip. It made Hubby and I laugh pretty good. However, in reality, we could live in that house and be perfectly happy. It really made us sigh, as in a happy sigh.

Canning Pepper Mustard Sauce ~ Tidbits
I froze more zucchini and squash for winter soups, sauces and casseroles. Yesterday was a race against the clock. Trying to put up the garden, and clean house both were a challenge.
See that straw? That is my food saver bag method. It's a bit hillbilly, but it works for now. I simply seal the bag all the way to one corner, slip the end of the straw in, suck out the air, quickly seal as I pull the straw out. Boom-ba-da-bing - sealed and most of the air removed.
