I'm a vicious spider virgin. Killed plenty, eaten none. And no longer a
ribbon slut. But when fruit and sugar's on sale, look out, here comes the
jam hussy.

You still taking stuff to the Farmer's Market Edrena? State is changing
the regulations for labeling home made stuff here and I'm waiting to see
what they have to say this time.

I see jams and jellies selling for $5 to $7 a pint and I'm getting
interested.

Tomorrow I will put up a few pints of pickled b**ts mit onions and
probably more next week. We ate the beet greens tonight with our roast
beef and black eyed peas. Had some raw carrots out of the garden for
beginners. Tilly Dawg, unlike Sleepy Dawg, has decided carrots are for
rabbits. Ol' Sleepy would beg for them, Tilly just spits them out. Spoiled
little thing!

Nah, I quit bein' pickle queen a couple years ago. Was too much work for a
"hobby." Lots of new friends tho, and lots of socializing. Still got my
pickle wings. It's all the way across the range, about 30 miles and just too
far for even visiting more than once or twice a month. Haveta plan them
trips nowadays.

Just don't feed the pup any onyuns, it's toxic for dogs & cats.
