summer Jesse helped pull the hose so I could spray again. Spraying is a pain, but it really does help in keeping that codling moth out of the fruit. I can't believe my bounteous harvest this year. The apples and the pears are loaded and I'm spending lots of time freezing and bottling like a good little grasshopper does.
However, today I had a disaster (well, it was when it happened). I bottled 7 quarts of applesauce and sliced apples and while moving a large bowl of hot applesauce to the other counter to empty it slipped and went all over my legs, shoes, rug and floor. Luckily it didn't leave burns, but WHAT A MESS TO CLEAN UP!!!!! I surely can tell I'm not in Kansas anymore or that I'm not 35 years old either. I think I dirtied every large pot I own and so after canning, cleaning up mess, washing rug, mopping floor numerous times and washing pots and pans, I'm pooped!! So for the rest of day I'm just going to sit down, watch soap operas and eat my bon bons, ha! I weigh 90 lbs.
