I need to get busy and make preserves. Her muscadines will be ripe soon and I hope to get some of those. Sometimes, I find myself eating as I pick them! They are a real late summer treat for me. It was sweet of you to drop by. It was a real treat reading your post about your new "lady in lace."

It is usually a good one, especially the entertainment. It is always on July 4th, but time got away from us this year and we didn't get to go. I especially like fresh figs and fig bars, too, but I usually make some preserves for my husband. If you can believe it, my blueberry bushes still have some berries. The birds can have those. I appreciate your dropping by and for leaving your nice comments!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />lynn cockrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16250601457878656085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-106512285217769944.post-79527181668316471002013-08-07T22:00:59.688-07:002013-08-07T22:00:59.688-07:00I grew up with muscadines, too!

Despite all that, you took the time to leave a comment. I sincerely appreciate it. I often speak of you to my friend, Harriette, and I told her that I feel I know you and that you are a friend of mine, too. She doesn't have a blog, but reads yours and those of others, from time to time. You have been such an encouragement to me and others.

I had almost finished replying and, clumsy as I can sometimes be, my hand went spastic and sent that one to heaven only knows where. I'll bet those Edisto tomatoes are good and you are so smart to can them. I usually make a few jars of pepper jelly, but haven't even done that yet. Maybe, I can put up a few jars of jam before the blueberries are all gone. Thanks for always stopping by, Laurie, and for leaving your kind, encouraging and uplifting comments. It is always great to hear from you and I apologize for being so long in replying.

And I could eat that whole gallon of blueberries right by myself. My husband loves muscadines. There is a lady in our town that has a whole grove or orchard, whatever you call it, of grapes and he picks several different varieties each year. I have been wanting to can some tomatoes this year and just kept putting it off for one reason or the other, so I went to Mt. Pleasant yesterday to buy some from Boone Hall Plantation. Theirs is almost finished, but had some from Edisto. So I bought enough to get started. The only problem is that they are not as ripe as I like, so I have them sitting out for another couple of days. Oh the joys of summer, gardens, fresh fruits and veggies. Thanks for sharing your bounty with us.Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01569684144657934330noreply@blogger.com
