Joining Taryn in this heartfelt tradition. A time to slow down, to reflect and be grateful.
Phew, it's been a busy week for me. Getting the last of the plums and tomatoes in prepped and stored away.
I ran out of jars so I resorted to stewing the plums down and putting them in freezer bags.
I also made another batch of spiced crab apple and ginger jelly. This one had more ginger in it so has a bit more of a yummy kick.
But here is my gratitude list:
I have been thankful this week for:
... the lovely weather we have had this week although it's a little chilly.
... I have finally made my yeast-less sourdough bread rise. (YAY!)
... The glut of produce I have harvested.
... The smell of autumn in the air
... Having reduced hours at work which meant more time for baking and knitting
... Spending time with family - something I haven't done in a while and I should do more
... My peas sprouting
... The grass seed also sprouting, almost got a front lawn! I shall write a post about that.
Your tomato harvest is like mine so many green ones! It is good to preserve and harvest, something to be grateful for.
ReplyDeleteI just think summer was a little late this year.
