Squash Pickles and Blackberry Jam

Good Monday Morning! Sunday afternoon was soooo relaxing I finished reading another short-story and took a nap....late evening after it had cooled off...picked blackberries and yellow squash. Today will be spent straightening the house, doing laundry, making blackberry jam and yellow squash pickles. I really enjoy the whole harvesting and canning the summer time fruits and veggies.

Oh I almost forgot...tonight is the last Nashville Star! Gooooooooooooo Melissa Lawson! I so hope she wins.

Have a great day!

Blessings,

Kathy
