Making candles

I've been saving these wax sheets for making rolled candles for just the right day and this was it. We loved this kit, lots of colors. Next is dipped candles.

Jacobs batter dipped fried tempeh!

Sooooo yummy.

Just some pictures from our garden

A dozen different kids of organic heirloom tomatoes, a few eggplants, chili peppers, string beans, tomatios zucchinis,purple basil, cinnamon basil, sweet basil, sage, thyme, oregano, lavender, mint, zinnias, snap dragons, potatoes, moon flowers. The gogi berry plant and strawberries are doing dreadfully so their not pictured. How do you like our tomato wall? :)

The bunny and chickens devoured all the kale, chard, japanese spinach, edamame, carnival carrots, lemon cucumbers, and Armenia cucumbers and I let the arugula die from depression ............tear tear :(

Popsicle stick yarn squares

Other reason I love yarn! I'm sure you've all at least seen these if not made them in elementary school before :)
