Esty goodies

Here are some onesies I printed, and deciding that I can't just amass baby clothes it is going on etsy. Hope you like them.







The picture of the last one didn't come out quite right, it is printed white fabric with little yellow circles.

Here is the link to my etsy shop

I made JAM!

This summer I had a desire to do more myself, to stop buying pre-made, prepackaged, and full of unknown chemicals. I want to know how to do more for my family. So here is my first effort ever at making jam. Its strawberry as strawberries are in season. My mother who claims never to have made jam helped me on my first adventure, it was great fun!
Here are the strawberries I picked in the morning- I couldn't have made fresher jam!
Look at all of the jam I made, I am proud of myself.
I made 3 different varieties of strawberry jam, a long boil (medium sugar) it is the dark jar, classic strawberry (lots of sugar), and a low sugar version.

Yay jam!
