Canning Shelf

I'm going to let the pictures and captions tell today's story.

My workout partner this morning, doing her push-ups

Multi-colored fingernails

Taking care of Baby Abby, short for Abigail

An attempt at canning my favorite fresh salsa in the pressure canner.  Not crazy about how it looks, will have to see how it tastes.  If nothing else, it can be used as "Mexican" tomatoes in cooking recipes.
Opening an immature ear of corn to see what it looks like when it's growing

Today's corn harvest, froze another 4 quarts today

The bird's nest Sophie built while I was shucking corn.  She really hopes it will be adopted by a bird as its home.
See all the filled jars of summer goodies behind that beautiful little girl?  They really need a home.
Charles made good on his promise to build them a home today.

Completed shelf

All loaded with stuff (and room for more to come)
Charred BLT (minus the B) salad as the first course of tonight's dinner

All plated up with homemade blue cheese dressing... delicious!
Banky wearing the headphones that drown out the thunder

Evening reading time (and not so happy I'm taking her picture)
