Amanda, I'm so sorry to hear about the rain. In the Rocky Mountains, we are enjoying a couple of days of fine weather after two solid weeks of daily rain, with tornadoes, wind, hail, sleet and assorted precip mixed in.

Thank you, Ms. Ranger!  ;D

Penthesilea:
I haven't been here in a whole while.

Congrats to Shasta and to everyone whose milestones I've missed! :)


Amanda, hope your power was back after returning home from work, and that the water damage stays out of your apartment. Fingers crossed :-*.

The other day, we had our anual cherry harvest and jam-cooking fest  :D.

I was pitting cherries for five hours! :o We started at three and ended the whole thing at 8pm.
Hubby and one daughter picked the cherries; I and the same daughter pitted them; my son ran the mincer (which we use for the cherries, not for meat) and the other daughter was our stand-by-man, meaning she was lazy and mostly kept out of the whole thing, but was on the spot whenever I called her. And hubby cooked the jam at the end of the day.

I had my daughter taking some pics:

Our work station. Left row, from bottom to top: cherries, plate with pitted cherries, stones. Right row, top to bottom: cherry pitter (which was used by my daughter, she pitted one cherry for every four I pitted, it's much faster when done by hand), mincer, and a plate with cherry mush.




My hand (I looked like a serial killer from a real bad horror movie :laugh:):



Penthesilea:
He had the best job: relax!




Nice portrait of my dog (I think)
