Remember going to the county or state fairs and seeing all the canned goods or bakery items??? I do. I always wished I could taste some of those items because my mom did not can and she was the world’s worst baker.

August 28 and 29 in Young Harris Ga. there will be a chance to see “old time” canning and bake goods being judge while enjoying a great craft show.

It’s not to late to enter. You can get your application CLICK HERE.

All my friends are busy canning or freezing their great, fresh foods but not me. I had the worst time with my garden. Caterpillars, worms and the hottest summer in recent history. I got a few tomatoes, a small crop of red onions and my gourds are finally setting on. (They are way late doing this)

We lost two of our chickens so we are down to 4 roosters. Normal people would think that all the failures I’ve had this year, I would just give up. Not me. This is my dream and I will just keep trying until I get it right. It’s the journey (right ?) not the destination. Besides, I have the best compost pile in the area !!
