Baking and making jelly. I let my neighbor pick raspberries, yesterday, but I must have missed the picking so I went out and picked cherries, lol. I have a pie in the oven and I've started the jelly. Have never done anything with fresh cherries, so wish me luck. At least it smells good. Supposed to be a nice day here after the humidity moves out, so I'm going to call my sis and see if she wants to join me for a long walk...I need it. The neighbor that picked my berries is taking us out for dinner tommorrow night. I'm looking forward to that, we haven't done that in a long time, but I'll miss chat once again. Wishing you all a lovely day. Charlie

PIES? lol Lor, just made one. Only dh and I to eat it and it's alot of work pitting those cherries. But it sure is good. Like I told Mare, I think I should try to can some, the tree is loaded. It's rather a new tree and we only had a few cherries last year (just enough for the birds). Charlie

Missed the walk, RJ. Sis invited me out to eat instead, that sounded like much more fun (she already had plans with my other sister). There turned out to be about 6 of us and we had a great time. I don't get out with the girls enough. Today looks like a great day for walking, so will definitely get out. Have a good one. Charlie

Thanks Gabby. They both turned out great, but after digging around for my canning stuff, I realize, I need to clean out my cupboards,lol. So that's on the agenda for this morning. Hope your getting back to your "feel good" self. Take care, Charlie

LOL, Free, they grow on trees (remember George Washington?). I know what you mean about canning. I like to do it in my own time, so if I don't feel like doing it, I offer the fruit to friends, otherwise there are always the birds. I do enjoy baking, though, would much rather do that than clean.

Charlie, we missed you at chat, but I hope you had a wonderful evening out! You deserve it, if for no other reason than baking and canning! LOL

My grapes should be ready soon, and it looks like a bumper crop, after a couple of really bad years.
