Jam-making babies (and giveaway!)

Ryla and I made some strawberry jam yesterday....

Let me tell you a story... about a jam making Ryla....

She made sure to eat her fair share of berries. (one for the bowl, one for her mouth)

She helped me by wiping up her mess(then dipping her wet cloth in the strawberries and wiping some more)

She tasted really yummy everywhere I went to give her kisses when we were done..

How odd.

She made sure the wall was pretty. Apparently she wants our kitchen to be red.

She gave me the "what Mommy?" look when I gave her the exasperated "Could you get any more berry anywhere?" look.

She was great at measuring out tablespoonfuls of berry.

She was very helpful smushing berries.

She looks cute no matter what she does.

The yield from yesterday's jam making extravaganza..

Something you might not know about me..(there are probably lots of things... ha) is that I LOVE to read. LOVE. I used to read All. Of. The. Time. I don't have as much time as I used to, but I still get in as much reading as I can... My grandma sends up boxes of books from Florida for us to read here and there... I read them and add them to floor to ceiling bookshelves that literally hold thousands of books. Well, I decided to raid my shelves and pick out some books that I liked to give away. While I was at it I pulled a couple of hundred off to sell in my garage sale, but that's beside the point.

Anyway, I am giving away these books:

If you don't want all of them, I will separate them up... You can pick which ones you like or don't like, you can take them all, or you can e-mail me and we can work out some different ones to exchange in and out from my stash if you really don't like an author or you have read one already...

I have a ton.

I am also going to throw in a copy of The Time Traveler's Wife. The movie comes out soon, and I am going to start reading it so I can go watch it!

Also... it talks about South Haven and MacKenzies Bakery. If you saw my birthday post, you would see that I went to S. Haven and I got a MacKenzies mini cake for my birthday! :D

So you will get that regardless of the other ones you choose... I just don't have the copy to give away yet. I'll pick it up today.

Same old on the rules.

One comment= one entry. Tell me what your all time fav book is... or if you don't like to read then tell me what your favorite hobby is... leave one of those 2 things or you aren't qualified!

If you follow me you can get an extra-leave an extra comment and let me know.

If you blog about this you get 2 extra entries!

If you refer someone you can get an extra entry(make sure and tell them to tell me that you referred them!)

It's garage sale day, so I have to go get ready!
