Baby Gameboy

One Pinterest idea has come to life! This took me about 30 minutes to make, the felt was about 29 cents/color, and I got the onsie at a garage sale for 25 cents. The worst part was cutting the felt with my somewhat dull scissors. All around a very successful little project.


I included the gameboy picture for those of you who aren't too familiar with gameboys... yes, those people do exist (I learned) :P

Canning Peach Jam

I got a box of peaches from the farmers' market Saturday for canning.
I boiled the peaches for about 3 minutes, put them in an ice bath and then peeled them. I ended up making about 10 pints of peach jam. Sadly, it didn't set correctly which is nothing new. When I'm alone trying to make sure I follow the directions precisely I manage to mess it up.
I also peeled and froze about 12 cups of peaches for later use... peach cobbler, a second attempt at making jam correctly, we'll see...
