Down to business

My friend Amy and I have talked for ages about starting some kind of business.  We feel it's a shame to let all our talents and brains go to waste (not that motherhood is a waste...far from it...we just want our efforts to reward us with cash).  So, we're gearing up to sell jams and jellies, and all sorts of cute girlie stuff at the...wait for it...local swap meet!  Hey, it's all we've got here.  It's our town's equivalent of a cute farmer's market.  And the rent can't be beat.  So today we got together and made 30 jars of Prickly Pear Jelly.  What a beautiful sight.  Next week we're tackling peach and raspberry jams.  And if you're in Globe the first Saturday of September, stop by the swap meet.  Ours will be the booth that actually looks appealing.
