HaRvEsT tImE!!!

I love this time of year! Although the summer is fading and the cooler weather will soon be upon us, now is the time we reap what we sow. Ryan and I planted a garden before we got married and it went CrAzY! Our squash plants grew out of our garden and about 15 feet towards the road. My neighbor referred to them as the squash plants that ate Manhattan :) Here are a few pictures. I canned 24 pints of peach jam (requested by my Ry), 12 pints if peaches, and 6 pints of apricot jam. I am looking forward to canning some salsa and maybe some tomatoes. Oh and I think our squash cross pollinated because we have a few funky looking squash.




PS if anybody would like squash I have plenty, the catch is you have to come and visit me to get some:)
