buttermilk scones with ginger rhubarb jam

rhubarb jam

the end of the rhubarb season.  time for freezing and canning. two batches of jam so far- strawberry rhubarb and rhubarb ginger.

twice in my life i've planted my own full garden. and both times i've moved before harvest.  rather tragic, really.
i visited my old house the other day. where my sad, under watered, under loved garden wilted in the summer rays.  basil, tomatoes, peas, eggplants. all dead or dying.  but my underground crops of beets and carrots were salvageable. so i pulled the baby beets and brought them home to pickle.

one day i won't wander.  and oh! what a harvest i'll have!

peaches

at home. canning peaches with mom.
