| I've been slackin' on my bloggin' because.......... I've been canning up a storm! Thur. I had to go to Door County with Butsch to help support the Lions Club Antique Show in Fish Creek. (100 % of the proceeds after expenses went to Leader Dogs For The Blind.) Just so happens the cherries were ripe. Door County's nickname is Cherryland. I canned cherries and.,.... |
 |
| Guess what else I made. Yes...it's made with (tart) cherries. Cherry Bounce! Here's the recipe (at the end of the post). |

| Second year in a row at a very sad attempt to make a garlic braid. One of these days I just have to take the time to google how to do it! I had to dig the garlic because if they dried up all the way, I'd never find them in all the weeds! |
 |
| Look how well my cauliflower is growing!! (I honestly have no recollection of planting kohlrabi -- but I must have :-) I thought it was cauliflower until just the other day LOL!) |
 |
| My Mammoth Sunflowers took a beating in the 60 mile/hr. straight line winds that we had with a thunderstorm yesterday. The corn stayed up though! Sure wish I could pack some rain up and send it out west to all of you struggling with your gardens! |
.....praying for rain out west.
.....dr momi
well, you had me puzzled for a second when you said cauliflower. my mom used to grow kohlrabi and we LOVED it! YUM! fresh peeled with a dash of salt. thanks for that!
ReplyDeletethanks for the prayer for rain!
You had me going with the cauliflower comment too! LOL!! Your cherries look great, I checked out the Cherry Bounce recipe, YUM!!
ReplyDeletecherry bounce....
ReplyDeleteLove the canned cherries! I bet they will be delicious this winter, and they look so pretty in the jars.
ReplyDeleteYou gave me serious cherry envy. Your jars look wonderful! I do love homemade cherry pie! I also have a great recipe for a cherry cake-like dessert served with cherry sauce over the top. Yup, I do like cherries.
ReplyDeleteI did the same thing with kohlrabi last fall; thought it was cauliflower- how funny!
ReplyDeleteTexwisgirl ...I will have to try raw kohlrabi and salt...never had that before.
ReplyDeleteCandy c. and Rox....Your Cherry Bounce should be "cooking", lol!
Debbie and Mama Pea....aren't the cherries pretty canned? Almost too pretty to eat. Hopefully the one I pulled for my fair entry gets 1st place! My son likes a chocolate-cherry cake for his birthday every year. I'll have to try a cherry sauce instead of frosting!
Michele....I am so glad you shared that with me!! I laughed out loud! They do look alike in the beginning don't they!
Also, I think your braided garlic looks just fine! I just used the last of mine from last year. This year I have more - double or triple.
ReplyDeleteThose cheeries are so pretty all canned up. I love cherries. I haven't seen cherry tree around here forever. I thought you might be trying to trick me on the cauliflower; what is that, I thought? Debi
ReplyDeleteI like your garlic braid!! I'd call it a 'rustic' look. Everyone's posting food...makin' me hungry! Your cherries look delicious.
ReplyDeleteYour garlic braid is great!! I'd just call it 'rustic'! And those cherries...yum!
ReplyDeleteThose canned cherries look delicious.

ReplyDeleteOh, you've been so busy!!!!!!!!!! The canned cherries look so good. I'll have to try that sometime.
