Wow, where did August go? And September seems to be slipping by as well. I got my knitting done and it was sent to Texas, tho I still have more knitting I'm doing. I can't show those yet, as they are going to be Christmas presents.
The garden is being harvested and my pantry is filling up. The drought hurt it some but I am getting enough out of it. I made salsa, canned some whole tomatoes and need to get out and pick more tomatoes.
We've made 4 batches of strawberry jam, froze some and brought strawberries to Illinois and our DIL made 2 batches plus we had strawberry shortcake :))) The strawberry patch is doing great this fall.
Jim found a neat shaped strawberry in the garden yesterday.
The pumpkins are getting big. Last year I didn't get not one to grow and this year they are doing awesome!
We've had some rain here and the other day a rainbow came out, it felt wonderful to see that.
I finally started working on some quilting UFO's that I need to get done. I've been kind of taking a blogging break if you haven't noticed by my lack of visiting. I will be back again, tho I miss visiting you all, I have been needing my time away to get things done here.




i like the rainbow with the crossbeam of light! neat! the strawberries look delicious!

I love what you made...I really need to get busy and finish some things. I am not blogging much and not getting much done either.

Time is certainly flying by Judy. Love the little shrug! I'm sure it was an absolute hit on the first day of school. Enjoy all goodies from the garden. It all looks yummy! :)

Looks like you've been very productive. Great shot and rainbows are always a treat to see.
