I've always thought freshly canned produce looks so pretty in the glass jars; there's just something comforting about it. This really wasn't a good year for produce, was it? A disappointment for us and a hardship for the farmers, I would think.<br /><br />Congratulations on all your hay bales! That will be for the horses, right? I think Mo the cat is cute, but he does look very shy. And your peach-colored gladiolas is absolutely gorgeous. It looks as soft as a water color print.<br /><br />Thank you so much for your visit and your sweet comments on our kitchen renovation. I appreciate them so much! I'm glad if I've inspired you to work on your kitchen; it has been a wonderful improvement for us -- feels like a different room. :)<br /><br />I hope you have a wonderful weekend, Ann!<br /><br />Hugs,<br /><br />DeniseDenise at Forest Manorhttp://houseatforestmanor.blogspot.com/2013/09/our-kitchen-before-and-after.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6460244051990142578.post-14727816115331496462013-09-07T10:58:57.913-06:002013-09-07T10:58:57.913-06:00Don't you just love the jars of canned goods s...Don't you just love the jars of canned goods sitting out for just a bit to be admired. I always leave mine out for about a week, then I tire of working around them and put them in the pantry. I don't have a garden, we live in the woods with too much shade, but my daughters garden and we have fabulous farm stands everywhere. I concentrate on one or two things each season - and make enough for all of our families for several years. This year was jam - we were down to our last jar and my grandson was scraping the bottom of their last jar. I made peach, raspberry, blazberry (blackberry and raspberry combined), strawberry and peach/raspberry (a new favorite). I canned many quarts of sweet pickle relish made with zucchini and I just got apples at the farm stand for apple butter - going to make it in the crock pot this year. Of course I got enough apples for a fresh apple cake - and later on an apple pie - what is the end of summer without that first apple pie.<br /><br /><br />Your peaches and salsa look wonderful - and I love your gladiolas!!!JoAnn ( Scene Through My Eyes)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12621061028973446378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6460244051990142578.post-24536741187054663332013-09-07T09:37:05.205-06:002013-09-07T09:37:05.205-06:00The peaches and salsa look great.

I've been winding down a little in the garden but not completely. There are still some crops to harvest (kale, herbs, carrots, turnip, salad crops, beans) so I imagine it will be October before I really wind down.Kellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06263430746482725687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6460244051990142578.post-31964591526557420462013-09-07T09:02:50.529-06:002013-09-07T09:02:50.529-06:00The salsa sounds great but I don't have enough...The salsa sounds great but I don't have enough peppers this year. I have frozen all my extra produce so that I can do something with it over the winter when I can't get outside. I have started cutting back stuff in the garden it's all starting to look a bit 'tatty' so a good tidy up is in order - if I can summon up the energy.elaine https://www.blogger.com/profile/17075935631756457901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6460244051990142578.post-39103422574334015162013-09-06T08:27:40.124-06:002013-09-06T08:27:40.124-06:00Yum your salsa looks good.

I always made a bunch with all of the peppers and tomatoes at the end of the summer when we had big gardens. We just have a few cherry tomatoes and yellow peppers in pots....but they are GOOD!

Well worth the effort in beauty and taste! Here in Florida, it is indeed time to pull up everything in the garden, but time to plant and sow seeds for a new winter garden. Good planting time is between Sept. 15 and Oct. 15, so I am now in the planning stage. I only do a few things mixed in with flowers, so it is easy! <br />I spotted your antique green lemon juicer...love it. I have one, too, and often put it in paintings. Gives me an idea for a new one soon.
