Elderberry jelly is the best. In the USA you can get it at a bizarrely named store chain called Christmas Tree Shops.

They did Elderflower jam here, but I didn't buy it as I would've eaten it straight out of the jar.  :-[

I think rose petal jam is the best, it tastes amazing and I love the texture of the rose petals.

Those wild hibiscus flowers in syrup taste amazing too, though it's better when it's put into a drink as otherwise the flavour is too concentrated for me. I love the texture of the flowers too.

^That is a bizarre store chain name.

  It's an excellent store, filled with wonderful things.  :santa: :M

Got a call on a large house I bid on  a couple weeks ago telling me it was ready,  it was a bit of a surprise seeing that they never got back to me to tell me I even had the job

I was home alone for a while, twice today.

And I did absolutely nothing, but hanging around while being on my own.

The backhoe arrived to dig up the septic line today.

Water company was supposed to mark the water lines but they have no clue where they are (the home builder ran them back in the 80's...no documentation).

Might be an interesting day. 8)

Ooooh, have you made sure the batteries of camera and phone are fully charged? This could be the beginning of your fame and wealth on YouTube.

Or just a thing to cause some great laughter on I2.

Luna was allowed to wash Lorre today. Not completely, but there was a start.

Had to be at multiple places today. One office had a large black lab as part of the staff.

He saw me, and boom...big sloppy dog kisses happened.   :lol1:
