Hidey Holes 21 Aug 2013 | 06:32 pm
This is a weeping Pussy Willow tree. Only one or two branches ever weep pussy willows. So even in the Spring it is nothing much to look at. Luna doesn't care though. It's perfect for her to dig a ...
It's begun 15 Aug 2013 | 05:35 am
More berries. It's blackberry season now. It probably started a couple of weeks ago. Last week we started picking in earnest. So far we have picked 15 ice cream pails full. Those are 4 litre or r...
More Wild Things 2 Aug 2013 | 10:18 am
This last trip to Oliver was a bonanza in the wild berry department. When we headed out on the Tuesday, we knew we were in for a hot week. We were in the car, and it doesn't have air conditioning. ...

Gooseberries 21 Jul 2013 | 10:09 am
The most expensive jam I make is gooseberry. I buy the berries locally for $2.50 lb. I did try to grow some at one point, but wasn't very successful. Since I don't spray, there were a lot of wormy ...
Google to the Rescue 20 Jul 2013 | 06:48 am
We went for a quick trip to Oliver last week. It's been a couple of months since we've been there. Not that we hadn't planned on going sooner, but my trip to Ontario changed things up, and then I wa...
Thrifty Thursday 18 Jul 2013 | 11:06 pm
Early Tuesday morning when I picked up the chicken feet, I also picked up 110 lbs of raspberries, and then continued on to buy some canning jars. It wasn't hard to convince myself that the thrift sto...
