James and Paulina had the day off today. North Dakota has their big teacher convention today and tomorrow. We used to go, but doesn’t happen anymore. Anyway, we spent the day inside working on the produce. I had hoped we could do a few things outside, but the weather wasn’t exactly cooperative.
The clouds looked more like something you see when ok I can’t even say it, but there were two others who thought the same as me. I won’t say that ” s” word, but it looked like it.
We stayed inside and made orange zucchini jelly seven jars, four pints and three half pints.
We also made applesauce. I counted out the apples, and it took 90 apples to make six quarts. At least the table is starting to get a little room on it. We shredded up about eight of the yellow zucchini. One of them had such a hard rind that we should have used a chainsaw on it. We were able to put the card table away so that has helped with the room issue.
Tomorrow some of the craziness of hunting season starts. James and I will clean at my mom’s house then head to Mobridge. I have had enough of a bed that makes my back hurt. By the time we come home I am hoping to rearrange to make another bedroom downstairs. Hurrah!
last issue, I finished the booties for Paulina. Hope she likes them!

That weather looks crazy! I have never heard of orange zucchini jelly. Trying to imagine what it tastes like…

Flavored with orange jello so that is the taste.

I hope she likes her booties too. I am wearing mine now and they are keeping my feet toasty warm! Thanks, Mom! That zucchini jelly looks delicious, can’t wait to try it, that is if Jaxon doesn’t get his hands on it first 🙂
