Battle of the bugs

It is so hot here in Texas that even the bugs are looking for shade!
Think the preymantis ate the grass hopper after this was taken.

Our first gourd

Very excited about our first gourd that has started growing!

Jam Jar Labels

Well it's that time of year when the peaches are ready and it's time to preserve the extras. Not just peaches here in Texas, but also cucumbers, banana peppers and jalapeno peppers.

I am usually tired after the cleaning of the fruit and then the canning process to make fancy labels- I have to confess that most of my labels are freezer tape and sharpie markers.

However, after looking online at all the beautiful labels you can print from you computer I have changed my mind.

Here's a list of free jam jar labels to print online.

Happy Canning!
