............there is little time for celebrating the end of Summer and Labor Day.
.......I made fig jam - thanks Bob for doing all that picking and suffering the mosquito bites so I didn't have to. I trimmed shrubs, and weeded. I packed clothes - several times until I got it right, hopefully! Chose jewelry - when evening comes on board ship a plain tee needs a bit of bling. Had a lunch out with granddaughter Jasmin and her cute and very polite boyfriend. Yes, Jasmin now has a boyfriend, she will soon be sweet 16!
Australia is calling - I'll have tomorrow to tie up loose ends then off to California on Tuesday. Perhaps I'll have time to BREATHE DEEPLY - Appreciate the Moment. Great words seen recently on the wall of the mall.
Happy Labor Day - wishing you sunshine and fun times.
Bon Voyage!
ReplyDeleteFig jam sounds delicious. Every year I want to make something like that, but I think our fig tree has about 15 figs, still green, this year. Happy travels!
ReplyDeleteYum! Fig jam is a favorite around here, especially served on brie. ;-)
ReplyDeleteTravel safely and have a wonderful time..........Sarah

ReplyDeleteFig jam sounds absolutely delicious. And we hope there will be a pot or two remaining in the cupboard for your return!
Sounds like you have everything in hand for your trip. Breathing deeply is a good thing to remember throughout life.

As an Aussie I truly hope you enjoy your trip here. All the best with the long flight.
ReplyDeleteI love your mosaic, Mary.
ReplyDeleteFig jam sounds delicious. There is usually a little house by my office that sells them every summer, but so far I haven't seen the sign.
It sounds like you have everything in order for your next journey. Now all that's left is having a wonderful trip :).
I have never had a fig, so I will have to take your word that the jam is good!! ;-D
ReplyDeleteHave a safe and happy trip, sweet lady!
