A Little Heat This Summer ~ a post by Kelli


Knit a Long anyone? I can't wait to start knitting this yarn, I've been saving for something special.The Prairie shawl should knit up nicely. The yarn is a Shalimar yarn called "Breathless" and that is about how this heavy fingering weight yarn makes me feel, the color is Bing~


Just couldn't do two batches of just raspberry, I created my version of Raspberry,Pepper,Lime Jam, I added a small amount of heat and tang(I can't taste the tang), I'm not the adventurous one when it comes to food, but I do like how my mildly warm/sweet jam turned out, maybe I could gift some to a lucky participant in our KAL? Happy summer, Kelli

  3. Didn't jam with my mom,was enjoying the quiet, it's a little harder making jam by oneself.

    I was buying berries and the thought popped in my head to add red pepper.

    Still need to take Grace berry picking, maybe I'll make some more.

    Thanks Lori ann, I'm still on the hunt for the perfect crackers,and cream cheese...any ideas.

    Hope your secret wedding knitting goes smooth and you join us~
