A few weeks ago I bought a flat of blackberries (Kotata), raspberries and blue berries. They've been frozen.
Gypsy texted there were beautiful apple (green!) and plum (yellow!) trees at her new house, did I want any? I've wanted to do some applesauce and apple butter and said yes to those. They will keep until I can get up there. I think she is going to pit and freeze the plums for me, too.
Then today at work a co-worker shared some tiny little crabapples with me. I've been trying to grow a crabapple in Raymond all these years and the elk keep knocking it down. I've been wanted to do a crabapple jelly... I'm hoping there is more where these came from...
So, I'll be busy. Probably in September. It will be an all day extravaganza and I will collapse into bed exhausted and fully jellied.
