Camping Trip!
Hubby was so excited to try out the new canoe, he hooked up the camper a night earlier than we had planned, and away we went.

Hubby's Shopping Trip
While I was shopping for school clothing and supplies, Hubby was on his way home from work. However, he stopped to shop also.

Photo Moments...
The start of my scrap blanket. I'm using all the yarn I have leftover from other projects. It's my "five minutes for me" handiwork when I need a change of pace from the other current handiwork.

More Tomatoes and other Tidbits ~ Chicken Funny
I did a quick walk through one area we planted tomatoes. All those green ones are turning red (although I don't see new green ones yet). These romas weighed in at 10 lbs. I'm holding out a few more days to see if I'll get more before deciding on what I'll can. I need 45 lbs. to make 7 quarts of seasoned tomato sauce. And of course these are not all very big, most are pretty small in size.

He Provides
This week has been super productive, and I got another batch of sweet pickle relish canned. I actually froze beets (first time to get any in my freezer). I'm in the kitchen again today.
You would not believe this.
