19.

A couple of weeks ago Colby came home and told me he was so proud of me and how talented I was.  He was talking about a project that had taken over our entire kitchen.  I down played the whole thing to the point where I think I hurt his feelings a little bit.  I didn't seem to think this project displayed much talent on my part.  I was just getting it done.  But then I started thinking about people that I really looked up to that did stuff like I had been doing and realized if I thought they were talented for all they accomplished my one project did warrant a little bit of praise on behalf of talent.  The project revolved around these little babies.
Elderberries.
They are tiny little berries that we harvested from the mountain and it makes the yummiest jelly.  Kinda like grape jelly... but better.  I steamed the berries to juice them and then Whallah! turn it into jelly.  So, in honor of my husband, behold... a talent of mine.
