Very Productive Day

First I went out and picked enough lilacs to make 2 batches of jelly. They are soaking in the refrigerator now and will be ready tomorrow. If we like it I will pick some more and maybe even steal some of my neighbors. Next I got another table out to the greenhouse and moved most of my plants. This afternoon I planted hot peppers and spider flower seeds. I hope they all sprout. Those are in the greenhouse too. Finally I did the dishes. For the rest of the evening I am going to relax. I will crochet. I didn't do any of that last night. Hope you had a good day.

I never tried to make jelly using Lilac blossom, let me know if it's worth trying.

@wolfgirl569 We have many Elderberry trees here in the area, the syrup made with those flowers is good.

@LadyDuck I sell my elderberries to those idiots at the auction. They give stupid amounts for them

. Then I buy my tea.

You've had a green day. I like the idea of lilac jelly. That must be pretty to look at, too.

Saturday I tried out the needle felting kit I bought. It's harder than I thought. I couldn't mix one color right, but I think it will be ok.
