Came across this book the other day in Barnes and Noble. LOVE it. Offers great techniques, new design methods, and a bunch of useful tips. Check it out. The author is Patti Brady, title “rethinking acrylic”
Almost anything that grows in the garden is good for pickling! With our large garden (20ft x 30ft) we just cannot eat all of our produce that it generates in one week. Our produce is so tasty and dear to us we could not stand to loose any of it. By having this large garden we save a ton of money on fresh veggies. We have incorporated at least one vegetable in our dinner and lunch each day, whether it be a tomato on the side, or an egg plant as our main course. We grew everything from string beans to cucumbers, as well as many different types of tomatoes and peppers.
So while our gardening hobby starts to wind down, our pickling and canning has picked up. My husband has recently purchased books and materials to start our new hobby. Most of the best recipes we have found online by simply doing a search. He has canned all differnt kinds of peppers and has even made salsas, and of course he made pickles! It is not easy and it takes a lot of delicate steps to get it just right. We feel it will be worth it on a cold winter day to crack open a can of roasted red peppers! And Enjoy!
Linda, Chris and myself (Katelynn-newest member of 168) were able to snag a shot with the River Sharks mascot this past Sunday. Thanks to Elite Landscaping we watched the game comfortably up in their private box, while indulging in a few beers and fries. I can officially report that 168 had a quite enjoyable afternoon!
On Sunday, June 28, 2009, Elite Landscaping invited the team at 168 Design to their suite at Campbell’s Field to see the Camden River Sharks. Check out the view!
Meet some of the 168 team…We are always stylin’ and hip, trying new trends. This spring/summer the sun may be bright but not as bright as the neon sunglasses that Urban Outfitters is selling! Check us out (Photo Left To right: Me - Leah, Lee, Chris, Brad) . We were in Philly together after the Go Green Expo at the Convention center on 3-13-09. We did some walking around Center City to check out some fresh designs after the show, and discovered vibrant colors are definitely in this season. We will be keeping the new color palette in our thoughts as we concept.
