New side bar stuff

see! look to you <----left and there are new things. There is info on getting jam from me, it can be done! just ask!
(Unless you are visiting in August and then it might be prudent to RESERVE your jam and you can eat it on the ride home. But i really reccomend it on toast and not straight from the jar, that's just too sweet!)

you will also see a new photo section "Cute of the Month"
Supposedly I will update this with cute photos of animals and stuff each month, bigger photos will be uploaded to Photographia.
The squirrl is out neighborhood squirrl, she and the Jay birds, who are nesting right now, carouse around together and it's very cute, I have named her Chippy.

2007 Lables

I reused the blueberry and raspberry jam labels from last year as I haven't felt like fiddling with photoshop much lately, my free time is too precious. So I also co-opted some graphics for this years new jams, since I am not selling them, I think it's OK to use the strawberry flower fairy, although I am not sure I should be posting it here, I may take it down, but as I am not a famous blogger of any sort, I think it's OK for now, just to share. And the other is clip art that I colored.

The raspberry and blueberry jams are Delicious, the cherry is something special (thanks to Erica for the handpicked Oregon cherries) and the strawberry may not be jam, but it's a tasty topping for ice cream and such. I am afraid you should always use the right amount of pectin. I do have more strawberries and so CAN make jam with them. But why when I have Cherry vanilla?
