Hey Granny!
Haven’t deserted y’all! JUst up to my eyeballs. Trying to finish painting a bedroom I’ve been working on for a month. All I have to do is get the guys to 45 the baseboard and corner trim and I’ll be done. Putting up blueberries and corn and maters. Hubby wanted salsa with HIS jalapenos in it. I said ok, the seeds are the hot part—meaning to cut them out. He didn’t. Needless to say, the first batch of salsa...it’s a wonder it didn’t melt my pans! I peeled and cooked another half bushel of maters and added to. The “mild” batch I made for me with corn and black beans was fine with a some added maters and more corn and beans. The hotter batch for hubby...it’s a waste as salsa. I canned it anyway—I figure one quart jar of that in a huge pot of chili is going to be just about right!
I ended up with 7 quarts of mine and 7quarts and 4 pints of his.
I have to remember to be specific with him. I told him if he’d pull “some” corn, and help me shuck and clean it, I’d put it up. I came home from work and he had a wheelbarrow full mounded up. About midnight, I quit and put the last dishpan full in the frig to put up after work. We got about 30 quarts out of that.
How’s everybody else’s garden/canning going? Gabz and I dropped the ball on this month’s gardening thread, but so far no complaints. I guess everybody is too busy in the garden!
Love my crocs—hate escalators/elevators. Always have. Poor little boy—hope he’s ok.
Y’all have a great day—week—month.... :)

Yes!!!
Sounds good.
In this area, they use salsa to cook chicken and all meats, it is good, but too expensive, when using store bought.
I envy your youth and all that you do........that is past for me, but there was a day...LOL.............
The little boy may be ok, it will be weeks before the cast comes off, she did not say his age, but about 6 years I am thinking.
Dad had taken the 2 boys on a long trip, camping in Yellowstone or some such, Mom flew out to spend a few days with them and decided to fly home with the 2 boys, and Dad would drive home....
I think they live in Atlanta, that is why they were there.
She said something about the pins in the toes and more surgery to remove them.
I haven’t seen the Crocs, so don’t know how they are built, but it was explained that the back of them will go over the back of the step and then pull the foot back into the steps.
It is wonderful that your garden is doing so well and there is nothing more beautiful than a pantry full of home canned food.
Your bedroom sounds lovely.
Rest and do not over do it.
