Canning Fun

In my neverending quest to become a Domestic Goddess I have learned to can! I made some delicious cinnamon applesauce and pickled jalapenos (from our garden). It was so much fun I started looking around the house for other things to can. My kids vettoed the pickled eggs.
From this:
To this - yummy

Pickled Jalapenos - can't wait for tacos!

Our Budding Actress

It's been awhile since my last blog (okay a long while), but it's time for me to come back. Tonight my daughter, Madison who is 9 years old, began her acting career. She performed as the Phony Princess #4 in The Princess and The Pea at our local Boys & Girls Club and oh my was she cute! After the performace she was beaming. What a good fit for her; she's very dramatic after all. I'm not sure where she gets it from (wink, wink). Madison has a tendency to get bored with activities that she's doing, but I think this one is here to stay (for a bit anyway).
Madison is the green one in the back row.
