Hummingbird and Liquid Gold! 8/29/2009

Just as Koda finished getting dressed for school Thursday morning, he heard a thump on his window. A bird he shouted!
Jdog and Koda rushed out to see if it had flown away. They found a dazed and confused hummingbird sitting on the rocks! Both of the boys took turns holding it, then it started to fly away, then turned back around and landed back in their hands! They held it for a bit longer before it flew into our tree. The boys said their goodbyes and it flew away!



It is that time of year again, PEACH season! Which can only mean one thing. Liquid Gold. Or, others may know it as peach jelly! YUM! Nan gave me two five gallon buckets of peaches! I froze some, and made jelly with the rest! I finished the first two of my six batches of jelly today, and realized I hadn't put enough sugar in the first two batches ~DUH~ have I mentioned I am so TIRED?!?! It will still taste delicious, it just won't set. So to make lemonade out of lemons~I will say I made two batches of peach syrup, and four batches of peach jelly!
