Haven't had any time to log into rift lately because it is craft season. This weekend is our first show. To prep for season we have made almost 400 jars of preserves and pickles, a dozen purses recycled from record albums, 2 dozen crayon rolls and countless number of burp cloths.
What kind of preserves?
We normally make blueberry lemon preserve, a strawberry jam, apple butter and a mimosa marmalade. This year we are also making a peach bellini and a strawberry margarita(which is like our jam but has lime and tequilla in it) Our standard pickles are sweet heat pickles(a candied dill pickle that is sweet than hot), garlic dill, garlic dill with jalapeno added, pickled garlic, pickled jalapeno, pickled okra, pickled okra with jalapeno and dill beans. This year we also made bread and butter zuchini and candied jalapeno. Our first small batch of candied jalapeno was so popular with our coworkers we sold out before making to a show.
Man, I wished I lived near you!
