I am a winner! No seriously. I'm not on an ego trip, I just win things. Not ALL the time, but I do win, sometimes. Last month I won 2 VIP tickets to the Kroger 200 race in Indy. It was really cool-pit passes, garage passes, hospitality trailer, free dinner and refreshments... I took a DS with me because DH had to work. DH was really disappointed-he LOVES Nascar. I felt so bad for him.
And now I've won again! This time I got picked in a blog giveaway and won a jar of PURE honey! And guess who loves honey? DH!! He is all the time talking about getting into a bee hobby. Of course we realize that someone who isn't actually on the property for 3 weeks out of 4 wouldn't dream of starting up something like that. But someday...
OK back to the honey. Right now it has a place of honor on the kitchen table.
Have I opened it? No. I just look at it (maybe drooling in the back of my mind, ok, not maybe, definitely) and think about opening it. But I'm waiting for DH to get home so he can have the honors. Because I know how much he wanted to go to that race (we watched the whole race from the PIT BOX!) and I know how much he loves honey.
So thanks to The Apple Pie Gal for the awesome looking honey! I'm sure as soon as DH gets home we can tell y'all how awesome it tastes, too!
While we are waiting, I am working on Peach Butter. This is the first time for me to make it and it turns out that it is also a big waiting game. It's been cooking for 14 hours now..... Oh well, I need to go to town and get some more jars anyway. When the peach butter gets done, I will be down to just 2 drinking glasses! Remember the good old days when people returned canning jars when they were finished with them?
