When I tell people about some of the things that I find enjoyable, they usually laugh at me. That's ok. I totally understand that I'm an odd duck. My friend Michelle came over on Saturday and found me in the kitchen peeling apples to make applesauce. She wouldn't quit laughing at me and said that she didn't know of any other 26 year old girl who liked to spend Saturday canning. I LOVE homemade applesauce so when I saw that they were still selling apples at the orchard around the corner from my house, I had to buy a few boxes. My mom and I used to make homemade applesauce when I was little and I have never really liked commercial applesauce because I was spoiled from a young age. I decided to make strawberry jam on Friday because they had strawberries on sale at the grocery store. I think it's really fun to have these little projects to work on. I just worry that I may be getting the spinster image since I do these things for fun. Oh well- what's a girl to do. I am resigned to the fact that I am practically a grandma!

Here are some of the finished goods.

Yummy strawberry jam! I'm such an old woman!!

You ARE a grandma because you are practically my mom! Remember?
Have I already asked you if you know Nate Benson?
So what did you think about me always eating applesauce? I wasn't spoiled at a young age so I didn't even know I was eating poop. You should have enlightened me!
I want to make Jam! We should do that!!
