Peachy Yumminess and Updates

-
Hello everyone.  It's good to be back again.  I have something quite delicious to share with you.  Ready?

On my last day off from work, my daughter and I made one of our families' favorite things - peach butter!  This is a recipe we found several years ago in the Ball Blue Canning Book.  We have made it many times since.  It is so delicious.  Peach butter is much like apple butter - only far better.  You take fresh peaches, puree them, add sugar, and cook them down. You then can (or bottle) this ooey, gooey spread of deliciousness and you have summer peaches for months.  If you're interested in the recipe, just look for the Ball Blue Canning Book.

My goal today is to let you know that there is more out there than apple butter and jams and jellies.  Peach butter is so full of fruity deliciousness that you may never want jam or jelly again.  While we're at it, ever thought of strawberry butter?  Awe, but that's something for another post.

Now for the update:  I have a fun project coming up in a couple of days for 3 Girl Jam.  Think "Back to School".  Here's a little sneak peak -
Curious?  Check back bright and early on Thursday Morning.  But that's not all.  I have one more fun thing to announce for the weekend.  There's a fun weekend Blog Hop coming up.

3 Girl Jam

You can find more information on Facebook as well.Simply go here - 
The hop will go live at 12:00 am on August 31 Pacific Standard Time.  There will be some great prizes too.  See you soon.

Welcome to my little contribution to the Operation Write Home Blog Hop.  I am so happy that you stopped by today.  This is the first time that I've participated in an OWH Blog Hop, but I have hopped to other blogs during these hops before.  I can't wait to see all the inspiration out there. Today, I have chosen the Bonus Sketch #12 to use with this hop.  It is a sketch that my daughter chose to have me make her thank you notes for graduation before I even knew the hop details.  What perfect timing!  Be sure to scroll down to the previous post for a full tutorial and to see my daughter's thank you note.  Same technique and sketch, but a totally different card. I used the following supplies: Operation Write Home Bonus Sketch #12 K and Company - Ancestry.com paper Memento Tuxedo Black ink OWH / Hero Art stamp Stampendous - Happy Messages stamp set Thanks so much for stopping by today. Remember to take some time to enjoy the l...
