I Know A Lady

Pint jar crisis averted!!! I’ve had water in my basement 2 times this year and everything down there is a disaster- boxes stacked on tubs. Long story short - found some 😁

I have a few batches left to make, but I think I will make them all quarts. I believe I am about 75% done and have many pints made in all heat levels, but after buying 36 pint jars (and using what I had, plus a gift of a doz.) I’m done with pints.
If you don’t mind getting a combo of both (if you just ordered pints) or don’t care if you get all quarts, please message me.
Thanks.

Yep, working on salsa again this morning- 10 batches in….

To all my salsa orders, be aware this isn’t like pretzel bites or chocolates where I can just buy more. I have to wait until my tomatoes and peppers ripen. Some orders may take awhile.

Hate to do this…. But not sure I can take any more salsa orders…. I’ll let you know for sure🤯

ORDERS ARE CLOSED FOR NOW
🤯🤯🤯
Salsa orders are open!!!
Unfortunately I am raising my prices. Since I started in 2020, prices have increased around 20% 😬.
My new prices are $3.50 for pints and $7.00 for quarts. Please let me know the heat level (1,2,3) and size pint/quart.
I will fill orders in the order I see them. Hopefully I can accommodate everyone 🤞🏼
(As usual, if I get old jars back, I can keep my cost/price down since I don’t have to buy new jars which are ~$1 a piece).
Thanks

Batch #3

Salsa has started, if you have any of my jars you don’t want, you are more than welcome to put them on my deck. I have a feeling I’ll be needing them. I’d offer to pick them up, but I have a feeling I am going to be busy.
I’ll make a separate post for orders.

Did some desserts for a wedding - you were absolutely stunning Jess 😍

It’s almost time 💃🏼
Just for reference my cutting board is 10x14, can you say HUGE 🙂

Just finished a custom order - shelves needed to be 20x20, distance between shelves 13 inches, the back needed to be open to allow cords, and top has to hold a mini fridge. I think I met all the requirements. I even added trim to the shelves to cover the rough edges.

If you’re thinking Christmas and want something homemade, personalized, you have 5 months. I will soon be busy with salsa then a break and it’ll be ‘chocolate’ season

So, what have I been up to… just a few things

What’s a good summer project?

I think my little will look pretty cute in this 😁

When I complete 90% of my orders (last 10% are ‘no rush’ orders) the granddaughters +1 get summer clothes.
6 pr shorts, 6 tshirts, 5 dresses, 1 skort, 1 skirt, 1 pr leggings, 1 romper, 2 stuffies (not all pictured)
Let me know if I can do something for you😁

When a slow time becomes busy…
5 dress alterations (4 prom)
2 sets of baby gifts- blocks, taggie blankets, wet/dry bag, stuffies
3 memory pillows & a bear
4 bucket hats (finishing this week)
Some mending (shirt, pants, snow pants)
…clothes for my baby girls

Just a few pictures as some are gifts not yet given or I just forgot to take a picture.
Thanks for letting me help you 🙂

People that have ordered from me- If I sign up for this, suggestions of things I should make?

When you’re a cook and an amateur woodworker trying to keep slats vertical until the glue dries…use what you have 😂🤣😂

The end is VERY near!! Tomorrow morning finishing cheese sauces and then deliveries!!
If you haven’t received your order yet, thank you for being patient. Life really got in the way this year

Ugh… I hate to do this, but looks like NL peeps that don’t want for the Super Bowl may have to wait until next week. I lost 4 days due to being Grma with sick kiddos, and my cheese inventory is WAY less than I thought.
Sorry

NL peeps that ordered pretzel bites does Wed or Thursday evening work better for delivery? **not including those who work at NLCSD. ***

I’ll be messaging people who specifically stated they wanted by the Super Bowl tonight.

I may be behind on contacting people for deliveries, I’m taking care of sick grandbabies 😢

PRETZEL BITE ORDERS ARE CLOSED
I’ll start contacting people next week for delivery/pick-up.
Thank you for your patronage 🙂

Productive day of making pretzel bites!!
ORDERS ARE CLOSING THURSDAY, Feb 1st

Looking good and smelling oh so delicious.
