It is no accident that there is a fruit fly in this photo, they were my entourage all month

- Hot N’ Spicy “Pickled” Beans – pickled with Bombay Saffire Gin. I’m tickled by the pun (& the rhyme).

- Fig & Ginger 2009 – not quite as good as 2008 but that was a hard year to follow

- Fig Brandy and Honey Mandarine preserves
These photos are just delicious – I wish I were a canner (and that I had things to can!)…you’re obviously a wonderful cook and your family will be thanking you for months to come!
Actually, I have a bunch of Apple Sauce and Ground Cherry Jam to label and store, and a pot of Chinese Plum Sauce on the stove that I need to finish off. So accomplishment feelings will come. But delicious – yes! Thanks!
It’s hard to not pop them open now – but restraint is in order given what is still in the garden.
Very nice! Some very creative products there… nothing like having a larder you can raid for goodies until the next growing season.
You must have such a sense of accomplishment! It all looks delicious.
Photography? Simple yet beautiful. Labels? Excellent! You rock! Glad you stopped by my blog so I could discover yours.
