In my basket today after many hot days I couldn't go forage or check my weedy garden, is cucumbers, one big cucuzza, banana mint, a few hot peppers, a loofah for eating, and elderberries! I have a love/hate relationship with Louisiana summers. I am ready for cooler Fall weather.

It's that time of the year when those pesky carpenter bees attempt to take your porch down!

Come grab a carpenter bee trap at the Ponchatoula Country Market. No bait needed.

I have been busy lately with small batch canning inside since it has started to heat up here at my swampy homestead.

Now in the Ponchatoula Country Market, one of my best sellers - DILLY BEANS! They are seasonal like most of my other canned foods so get one before they are gone!

This morning I did my favorite zen activity and went foraging. What's in the basket, you ask? Well, I started with wild persimmon tree leaves (makes delicious tea!), then went on to wild blackberry leaves (ouch), added early ripened blackberries as well, then I hit up the beautiful spiderwort flowers and my tea roses. Then I walked around the pond for more blackberries, snagged some mimosa tree flowers for my best selling flower jelly and ended with a few milk cap mushrooms. My dehydrator is full, my heart is happy and my body is tired but in a good way.

This week I plan to make more strawberry vinaigrette, strawberry hot sauce, mimosa flower jelly, blackberry jelly, blackberry blend tea and maybe a bit of Cajun hummus by special request. Come see my booth at the Ponchatoula Country Market on Thursday to purchase something fresh made from the homestead!

I absolutely love my fellow vendors (FRIENDS) at the Ponchatoula Country Market ! Many have pitched in to help me set up, organize and beautify my new booth location. Special thanks to my artist friends Debra Haley and Christine Norred Brignac who created these fantastic chalk paint signs for me. There is so much talent between them and a lot of love and caring for everyone who is lucky enough to meet them. Thanks again ladies!

I have added a line of old fashioned Southern favorites homemade candy! Check out my peanut pralines, Cajun peanut brittle, plain peanut brittle, and the rich and decadent Rocky Road candy. Also, Mr. Crawford of Crawford's Farm makes the most delicious traditional pecan pralines (pssttt...not microwaved!) so grab one or a few from the jar!

From box to a perfect wall mounted rustic glow! My very patient daughter-in-law Caitlin Pardue brought my two beautiful grandsons for a visit while she helped me put finishing touches on my new booth space at Ponchatoula Country Market.

Thank you so much Cait! I love you and appreciate the help! (Plus I loved seeing those little munchkins!)
