Pickled peppers and garlic |
I'm also preparing to grill some chicken breasts this evening for work lunches this week. I bought some more of the wonderful local sweet corn to put on the grill, too, and a ripe cantaloupe to slice and refrigerate for dessert. Cantaloupe isn't my favorite summer fruit, but Gregg likes it.
Besides kitchen stuff, I'm doing laundry and a few extra house chores this afternoon. Tomorrow the kids are back at school and this week is going to be hectic. I'm trying to enjoy a quiet day at home to prepare for the craziness of the next few days. Another school year is about to really begin!
Today you have been the perfect little housewife. I hope you also ironed Gregg's shirts, massaged his shoulders and made him a tasty meal before washing and powdering his feet. Have a good week Jennifer. This week will seem very long but then the weeks will speed up and fly by.
ReplyDeleteThe peppers look simply fantastic. Greg has good taste, cantaloupe is my favorite melon... and thanks for reminding me, I need to do laundry.
ReplyDeleteNever mind eating them. Just put the jars in strategic spots around the house - they're beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHappy new school year. I miss it. . . . and I don't.
my BIL also goes back to his classroom tomorrow (upstate PA). grilled chicken & corn and cantaloupe - YUM! I'll be right over for dinner!
ReplyDeletePretty pickled peppers!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck for a reasonably calm first day of school. Is that even possible? If it is I hope you have one!
The vinegar is going to be fabulous on greens later this year. Best wishes for the new academic year.
ReplyDeleteThe peppers look beautiful. Good luck tomorrow on the real first day. Trust me I know that! I start back on the 26th.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful jars of vinegar.
ReplyDeleteOur kids began school this week. Summer is gone.
Indeed they look marvelous. That is the stuff I would give my R arm for at a county fair.
ReplyDeleteGood Luck on Monday and the first week of school.

Huh.... I didn't grow any Peppers this year.... I should have. They look gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYou've done cosy homely things (homely meant in the best meaning of the word) and this will give you a nice stable background feeling when the hectic days begin. The start of a new school year must be rather exciting and a lot of work for everyone, but soon things will settle down to "business as usual", I hope.
ReplyDeleteThose peppers look wonderful. I hope you have a good first week of school. Beginnings are always exciting.
ReplyDeleteWorks of art!
ReplyDeleteA good ripe cantaloupe is a thing of wonder. The problem is -- just like honeydews -- most of the ones we eat these days are picked before they're ripe and just don't ever achieve optimal flavor.
