Humble Beginnings

A few updates

I just wanted to give a few quick updates.

1. The cranberry juice I made a few weeks ago turned out wonderfully.  It's very tasty.  I actually made my hubby Cran-Grape juice by mixing equal parts of the the mustang grape juice I made this summer with the cranberry juice.  It turned out really good. 
2. I also really like the deodorant I made.  I'm going to go ahead and buy deodorant tube containers from ebay so that it'll be easier to put on.  It seems to last longer than the other "natural" deodorants I've bought before.
3. My six  year old daughter also just sold two of her paintings on ebay this week.  She wanted a way to earn some extra money and thought that she could sell her paintings.  And, she did.  I'm very proud of her and hope that she continues to improve on her skills.

For those of you that are interested in canning your own juice, try this link:  Canning Juice.  It's so easy you'll be surprised!!

I plan on making cranberry juice out of the rest of the cranberries in the freezer.  I tell you what, it's cheaper than buying cranberry juice at the grocery store.  I spent $.99 per bag of cranberries and I think out of two bags I made 10 quarts of juice...not bad at all.

I hope y'all are each doing well.  God's blessings to each of you on this cold winter evening.  (By the way, we're having venison chili tonight...my, my, my the house smells good!).

Just an idea for deoderant tubes. It may, just maybe, be less expensive if you got some deoderant from a dollar store, or maybe even walmar. Just empty out the deoderant and you've got deoderant bottles without paying shipping!
