~Hallow's Eve Moon~In my gardening frenzy I've managed to complete this Moon Cupboard doll.
I spent a good portion of my weekend picking, shelling and freezing blackeyed peas, canning tomatoes and today finishing 8 pints of pickle.
I'm hoping now things will slow down a bit and that I'll mostly be just canning tomatoes. It's alot of work in a short period of time but it gives me a good feeling when I see my pantry and freezer shelves filling with pints and quarts of vegetables.We're supposed to get a slight reprieve from the extremely hot, humid weather for a couple of days. I welcome it! I'm not a hot weather lover, give me the cool, crisp days of fall and then I'm very happy.Hoping your weather will be cooler...Diane

The garden is really producing now! The tomatoes and corn have started and what can possibly be better than a tomato sandwich made using your own, straight-from-the- garden, juicy red tomato or corn on the cob dripping with butter?I'll be canning some of those tomatoes soon and I'll freeze some corn (cut from the cob) to put in soups.It'll be a busy weekend! Hope you enjoy your's.Diane
(one of my past designs)It's hot as a firecracker here (upper 90's and humid) so I know it's July in Virginia!I continue to be busy with my canning and pickle-making. I do try to make time to sew some each day and I am putting the finishing touches on a doll I hope to list on Ebay tonight.I hope you all have a wonderful and safe July the 4th holiday. Enjoy it! I know I complain about the hot, humid weather but I'm trying to stay happy and busy and not complain too much. Time is passing by so quickly! Just remember, six months from now we'll all be thinking about taking down our Christmas tree and decorations!Don't think about it too much! Enjoy your weekend!Diane
