I canned sauerkraut and pickled beets this week.
A pleasing color contrast.
This part of my run is lined on both sides with blooming clover, which has the sweetest, slightly spicy scent.
And here's one with Jasper, just to give equal billing to both dogs.
I'm not harvesting the asparagus anymore, but here's an old photo of it I took just because I loved the contrast of the bright-green asparagus on the bright-red Pyrex top I threw it on to cool down before I put it on my salad.
Both the rose and the asiatic lilies are blooming, which makes for a very pink table centerpiece.
A former teacher at our school invited all the children to go up with him in his small plane this past week. The airport he flies out of is 100 miles from our house. He goes flying at first light, so as to avoid the almost-constant wind. This meant that we left our house at 3:50 a.m. to get there in time for his 5:30 a.m. flight.
Despite the unpleasantly early wake-up and long drive, the kids had a very good time.

There you have it! My life, snapshotted.

Oh, my, you get extra bonus points for a 3:50 am departure. How cool of the teacher!
Lovely flowers! Some lilies make me sneeze, so I have to enjoy them outside.
I made cherry freezer jam; my husband even helped me remove the pits for a while. He's the one who loves cherry pie, so it's nice that he's helping out with the tedious part. (The kids disappeared as they hate doing it.) I still have two gallons left to pit and freeze for future pie.
