I ran out of my hot pepper relish, so I went to the farmers market and went crazy.  I had to buy some more zucchini.  I made a few mini apple pies, which I think are cute, practical, and easy to eat.  If I can find some really sweet oranges, I want to make orange marmalade.  Once I get started, it is hard for me to stop with this canning stuff.

Yesterday I was invited to a benefit craft show for the Littlerock library.  This is what my stand looked like.  I have to say I had a good time.  I got to share all my goodies, and I made new friends.

In A Few Years...

As I refuse to give up on gardening, I have started a Fall garden today.  This whole tray is lettuce.  Bronze Mignonette and Black Seeded Simpson.  They are heirloom seeds and a cut and come again crop.  Fresh salads to come...I am hoping.
Picture
This tray has Brussel Sprouts, Broccoli, Snowball Cauliflower, Golden acre cabbage, and Copenhagen cabbage.  Last year I got one good broccoli.  Hoping to do better this time.
Picture
This tray has Swiss chard...three kinds and two kinds of kale.  All heirloom.  I was juicing a lot of kale this Summer.  Want to grow my own so I know what is on it. 
Picture
These are some of the pomegranates I started from seed.  I think there are about a dozen.  These will go in bigger pots in the Spring.
Picture
These pomegranates were small plants last fall when I put them in  these pots.  Now they are ready to be planted in the ground.  I think I will wait till Spring.  Maybe get the holes ready this Winter.  I have four this size and one I am babysitting. 

In a few years I think I will be set on enough pomegranates.
