The vegetable garden is keeping me quite busy still. Today I made 13 bottles of "Beet Relish", it being the first attempt at those. { If anyone would like the recipe, just let me know} I forgot to take a picture of the 16 large bottles of "Pickeled Beets" that I preserved two days ago. Also today, I finished designing my rug and put it in the frame, now to get to it.... The wood is ready to be cut up and stored away for the winter months. From now until late October/early November, it will be a very busy time for me.
After reading this for errors, I realized my days may be busy but come back tomorrow and I will tell you what a busy day was like in my Mother's day........
That looks great. I have never seen beet relish before. Pickled beets, however, are my favorite. One of my Mom's cousins brings me a basket full of jars for Christmas (with a big bow, of course). Its my best gift!
ReplyDeleteBeet relish? That's a new one I'd like to try out. My beets are still in the ground back home and as they were planted abit late, I am sure they will be fine.
ReplyDeleteIf you get a chance, please post the recipe, I'd like to give that a whirl!
I'm sure your beets will be just fine until you get back home, Julie. We still have LOTS left in the ground to be done yet. I will post the recipe for you. Really simple.
ReplyDeleteKim, I like to give gifts of my produce and preserves that I make during Christmas and people DO appreciate it....
ReplyDeleteAnd I'll be peeking at that recipe when you post it. If its easy, I might try it. (Or else I'll pass it on to Mom's cousin!!)
