JBB's Garden: July 2006
http://jbbsgarden.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 23, 2006. State of the garden. While the garden does not look as lush as it once did, I'm still enjoying its vegetableschard, carrots, and cherry tomatoes. The yellow wax beans are producing a few beans as a second crop, and the green pole beans look like they might produce a second crop, too. I don't spend much energy or time "tending" the garden. I water it in the evening, and that's it. Tuesday, July 04, 2006. Now I had space to assemble and display a new fire pit. This is not someth...

JBB's Garden: September 2009
http://jbbsgarden.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 23, 2009. I recently visited my parents for a couple of weeks in Washington State. While there, the late summer/early fall fruit crops were in full production: pears, blueberries (still), grapes, prunes, and varieties of apples. My mother and I canned one batch of pears and then my cousin came a couple days later to put up a batch for her family. (Notes for myself to remember how to do this! The differently-shaped pear tree. A selection of the best. Place jars in canner. Listen for t...

JBB's Garden: Backyard improvements
http://jbbsgarden.blogspot.com/2006/07/backyard-improvements.html
Tuesday, July 04, 2006. This morning I took advantage of the day off work mid-week and, before it got too hot, transported a pile of medium-sized chunks of junk concrete and broken bricks and lined them up alongside the house. I didn't know what else to do with them as they are not supposed to be disposed of in the regular trash. And it's not as though this side of the house is very pretty to begin with. There were a number of items from which I could choosewatches, jewelry, electronics, silverware...

JBB's Garden: February 2006
http://jbbsgarden.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 27, 2006. It's been raining quite steadily this afternoon, as predicted. That was one reason I wanted to get the chunks of concrete and rocks picked up yesterday so that the rain could soak into the ground where I want to dig. The rain is supposed to continue tomorrow and perhaps later in the week, too. This is good news for Southern California! Sunday, February 26, 2006. When a tree falls. This is the lovely back yard! The view facing west. The solid portion of the fence with the ot...

JBB's Garden: Canning Tomatoes
http://jbbsgarden.blogspot.com/2011/09/canning-tomatoes.html
Sunday, September 25, 2011. I thought it was high time just to DO IT and CAN. I have watched my grandmother and mother can, helped my mother and cousin can pears. A couple of years ago, watched Anais and Jordanne Dervaes. Give canning workshops to junior high and high school students, but I had never canned a batch of something all by myself. I started by cleaning my kitchen, reading the instructions and recipe and going to the store to buy a few ingredients I didn’t have on hand. First lesson experience...
