I haven’t worked on miniatures at all since my last post.  I’ve been a bit busy doing some other stuff.  Last weekend?

I went to a friend’s house (both Sat and Sun) where we canned 38 half pints of crabapple jelly, and 20 pints of crabapple butter.  To be completely fair I wasn’t even around for all of it, but did help out a lot; if I say so myself.  This weekend?  Helped same friend paint her breakfast nook and foyer pretty much all day Sat, and then today I roasted tomatoes to make sauce (along with some carrots and, umm, cucumber.  I mistook it for a zucchini).

After I roasted those for 2 hours, then put it on the stove  for a bit to thicken up I (with hubby’s help) shelled some lima beans, blanched and froze them, along with some ears of corn (all lots of yummy stuff from the farmer’s market).

Then I made dinner.

The local natural food co-op makes these to-die-for pita breads that make great pizza dough.  Some pizza sauce, spinach, squash, and just a little bit of some vegan mozzarella style cheese (yes, I’m vegan) and no more hunger.  Then hubby reminded me of the remainder peaches his dad brought as a present last weekend (oh yeah, my FiL, his girlfriend, and my BiL visited last Sunday after I got back from the canning escapades).  I remembered that my bread machine has a jam setting, so I made some peach freezer jam.

Hopefully there will be time for miniatures next weekend.  Though I’m pretty sure I said that last weekend…
