Midsummer ...

Hello everyone.. 

Hope you all had a great weekend.. 

Just sharing some pics of the last few days.. 

So hard to believe that August is here and Summer is half over.. 

It seems such a short season here in Maritime Canada.. 

I love this one and always try to hold onto it by the shirt tail.. grin.. 

I have made a few more batches of jams.. 

Raspberry and more strawberry ones.. 

Also some banana breads and a recipe I concocted for Mango Coconut muffins... 

I will try and give you the recipe next time as tonight it is late and I just wanted to check in with you all.. 

So blessed to go home this past weekend... 

I had not been home for six weeks although Terry gets there quite often.. 

It felt so good to be there and sleep in our water bed...smile. 

And attend our own church.. 

Our grandsons were quite surprised when we walked in .. 

We are enjoying going to church with our daughter's family, of course but there is no place like home, eh?

Terry picked me a bunch of Queen Anne's Lace in Moncton when we went in after church for dinner.. 

Another batch of jelly coming up tomorrow, hopefully.. 

We arrived back here in St. Martins about noon and I opened the shop.. About an hour later we had a huge rain storm.. 

My... did it ever rain and then the sun came out.. 

The weather is so different this year, eh? 

Well, dear hearts this is all for tonight.. 

So glad to meet those of you who have stopped by the shop.. 

Just think ... 

In about five or six weeks we will be going home.. 

I always start looking forward to that about this time of year;

when the Poor Man's Orchid comes in bloom..

They are the ones around the bird feeder.. 

You can only find them here in St. Martins area but I took some home a few years ago and they just pop up everywhere.. smile. 

Take care and thanks so much for stopping by.. 

God bless...
