August - Out With a Bang
It's September 1st and August seemed to fly by and yet, I packed a lot into that month. It went out with a bang as we enjoyed fireworks last night. We had company for dinner and Dan, Nathan and Stephen and some of our guests walked down the street and up into the park where they were having them. My friend and I sat in our backyard to watch them there. The trees blocked a clear view, but we saw enough to enjoy them. I spent the weekend canning tomatoes. I used up a half bushel of them making jars of diced tomatoes and ended up with 16 pints and 4 quarts. I still have another half bushel to go and will be making tomato sauce either today or tomorrow. I have cabbage fermenting in jars and once that happens (about 7-10 days), I'll be canning these. I have a fall retreat I'm putting together for women in our district which will take place the last weekend in September so I've been busy working on that. This may be my last fall retreat as my role as district Alliance Women...
