But Wait, There's More,,,,

I used to work for this great man who loved to buy stuff on-line and then show all of us in the office. And as we would look at it, he would talk about the ad and then add the words,,,,"but wait, there's more". So here is my version of "but wait, there's more." You've seen the garden photos and the peach photos, now look at some of the other stuff we have been doing. Who ever said retirement was boring does not have anything to do. Mike and I have been frequent visitors to the Piedmont-Triad Farmers' Market. We bought a 1/2 bushel box of pickling cucumbers and I made my 14-day Crisp Pickles.

Then we bought a bunch of red cabbage and made 2 batches of Pickled Red Cabbage. There will be more red cabbage later in the summer.

Next up, blueberry jam. But wait,,,,there's more!

We made blackberry jam,,

We picked figs and then peeled and froze them.

We bought another 1/2 bushel of pickling cucumbers and made my bread & butter pickles.

Then we picked more figs, peeled them and froze them.

And then there is more blackberry jam.

But wait, we're not done. Nope,,check out what we did with 200 pounds of tomatoes.
