Homemade strawberry jam, swimming and new pretty flowers in the yard what more could you ask for in summer:) Here is Roman already to go swimming at a pool I go to quite often. He loves to wear "seagulls" a.k.a. goggles. I don't know why he calls them seagulls but it's quite funny. Can you tell he loves the pool:)
Last fall the last week the local greenhouse was open I popped in to check out their awesome clearance. I bought a flat of carnations for around $1.00 and stuck them in the ground. Lo and behold they came up this year and are just gorgeous. I love them they smell soooo good. Quite a good deal!
And here we have strawberry jam I spent three hours making it today. Glad that work is done! It's such a treat in the middle of winter to pull out all the goodies I put away during the summer. Strawberry jam being one of our favorites I do a lot. I also freeze some strawberries and we make smoothies with them...yummy! I feel like such a pioneer women or something of that sort when I make jam and "put up" goodies from the garden:)

Such a nice blog. I hope you will create another post like this.
Wow, You've become quite popular in bloggy world :)
I did jam last week, it sure is a lot of work. Hope yours sets better than mine did.
Love the picture of Roman. Hope we can get together soon.
Yes, I definitely changed my mind about selling any jam. I guess I didn't realize how fast we actually go through it. We have already gone through 2 containers!!! I think we will actually be making more. :) Looks like you made quite a bit yourself!
Just to let you know...be careful with those extra comments on your blog. They are sometimes scammers sent to you with a virus attached. Lovely, right?
wow what a lot of comment;)
I just finished my second round of jam today. I ran out of sugar so that is enough for me, the rest of the strawberries I'm freezing. I canned mine, a first for me I always did freezer jam before.
I've never seen a carnation plant- very pretty.
