It’s harvest time in Colorado but the flowers are still blooming! My parents house is abundant with color and beauty–and their dog, Gluwhein, is pretty darn cute too!

It’s Saucy to make Juice–canning tomatoes in jars
My grandmother’s skills are alive and well as she taught both my mother and myself to can/pickle/jar produce. Holly also joined in the canning and jarring of over 2 boxes of fresh tomatoes (from Honey Acres in Wiggins, Colorado).
While it’s not a difficult task, it does take time to make, from blending up the tomatoes to simmering it down in a giant pot (seasoned, of course) to steaming the jars and lids with sealers and more! It’s a task worth while though and the three of us had so much fun! We had an abundance and as seen, we had made many quarts of successful tomatoe juice for sauces and more!
Early Autumn, the last of summer, Colorado
Visiting family in Colorado is always such a joy. My parents yard/property is full of color and splendor, who wouldn’t want to sure it’s beauty and aesthetics?
Yes, it’s a crab apple tree that I am standing under and it’s full of crab-apples. If I knew how to make hard cider from the crap apples, I would do it!

New Life on the farm, Mommy kitty is Sweet on her babies
New life on the farm is quite spectacular; even when it’s a fairly common occurence, it never ceases to amaze me.
Mommy kitty has been around the farm for sometime and her new litter of babies is quite stunning! Holly and I moved the mommy and her babies to a shed with coverage as the weather was going to turn nasty.
