I smashed up dried eggshells the other day, too. I mix them with Bone Meal in an old ice cream bucket and do as you do for my tomatoes, peppers, zukes and cukes.

Absolutely NO Blossom End Rot on anything. It’s magic!

I have your package ready to mail and will do so when I go to town next week for supplies. The ‘Canary Bird’ Zinnia seeds and a few other hand-crafted surprises are in there for you, to repay you for the BEAUTIFUL finger-less gloves you knitted for me & Mom. I wear them when I’m crocheting; they’re so cozy!

Also - if you do make up that jelly, I would gladly trade you for some of our homemade Maple Syrup if you’re interested. :)

I will have to see on the jelly - only makes 5 jars per batch & I have a waiting list. If I have a couple of jars extra from these two batches, we’ll talk! :-)

My niece has blackberries in profusion on her farm & I want to buy some from her to make the jelly this coming year.

So I dropped my phone in the hospital parking lot (trying to carry too much to the car) & cracked the screen (insert appropriate curse words here) - fortunate the phone still works. I checked on getting it replaced because I LOVE this phone. $98 meant a new phone. I bought one Wednesday & made the mistake of turning it on tonight. Wow - my old phone is like from the Stone Age compared to this one. Mom said “why is your face so red?” Lots of STRESS dealing with getting my stuff transferred over. Apps transferred but no data in them. Contacts transferred - phone numbers only, nothing else like addresses & I don’t see where I can even add that info. Very upsetting. The power cord doesn’t have an end to fit in a plug or anything else I have so the phone is now turned off. My brother & SIL have the same make so I will talk to the bro tomorrow & see what is what - he may have a power cord I can use, too. I am pretty good figuring out techie stuff, but right now, I feel pretty “old”.
