Will ya looky there? I can finally see my reflection in the bathroom. Huzzah! No more dashing for the best light. Many thanks the hubster, my worker extraordinaire, who did a fine job hanging said mirror and painting this weekend. We edge closer and closer to a finished bathroom, my friends. One fine day!
While he painted (the black window – his work!), I canned. Eight pints garlic dills, six pints spicy dills, seven pints bread-and-butter, two pints pickle relish, four half-pints Hatch chiles, and two quarter-pints jalapeños. Seeing the jars lined up in the cupboard is highly satisfying. Being burned by hot vinegar solution is highly painful. My thumb will recover, however, and I will be ever more careful.
We also spent a lovely day with the Twists, enjoying excellent company, the serenity of country living, grilled steaks, fine whiskey, home grown blueberries, a sky full of stars, and a visit from an owl! Its profile was reminiscent of a cat atop a tree, and a big one, too. Very cool.
Here’s hoping you had a lovely weekend and are keeping safe amid all the fires and storms. Be well!

Woo Hoo! I should have gotten to you sooner– I have so many cukes now they are overflowing! Want some more? The bathroom is looking good!

Hey there, pretty daughter, all is looking good. Your pickle packing sounds very productive and I can envision those jars lined up like soldiers in your cupboard.
I like the black and white scheme for the bathroom. Accent colors abound! (Hang in there, it won’t be long)
