Saying hello to Fall





The weekend was spent catching up on a gazillion errands that have to wait until Sat/Sun such as laundry, groceries, supplies and straightening the house. We did manage to squeeze in some fun and relaxation-ok maybe not relaxation...

The pics went in backwards:)

Picture 3-painting the fort (the newly remodeled version) I convinced small fry to paint it the same color of the house so it would be camoflauged with the house (he wanted rainbow-ummm don't think the neighbors would approve)

Picture 2-Homemade caramel apples, we were going for "gourmet"

Picture 1-Homemade pepper jelly-you know the kind-you spread it over a block of cream cheese and spread on crackers-can't wait to try it. We HAD to do something with all the peppers hubby planted.

Yum, pepper jelly, that sounds great! Fort looks like a fun way to keep little boys occupied.

Pepper Jelly!!! How much did you make? Um...will there still be any there next summer?

LOVE the fort, will shot TM that photo later today.

I wishwishwish that there was even one kid at my house who liked carmeled apples (or didn't have braces, for that matter).

You want the recipe Bobbi? Let me know I will post it, or send you the link, the jars are from Wal mart...The jelly is awesome with a smidgen of cream cheese on a cracker-I have to hide it from ourselves in the back of the fridge
