Canning and Creme Brulee

I feel so domestic right now :)

 My Hubby and I canned some blueberry-lime jelly all by ourselves!

This is kind of epic for me :) I've canned before, but always with people who are

way more experienced and who tell me what to do.  This is the first time I've

done it without an expert to guide me.  It went pretty well! I panicked a bit

when they didn't seal at first, but then they did so it worked :)

Hopefully this leads to more canning adventures.

I also made creme brulee! I have been in love with the stuff since I 

first tasted it when I was 15 years old.  I've never made it before (except for an instant recipe once) because I thought it would be tricky.  I guess I've never looked 

closely at a recipe, or I just found a really easy one because it was super simple.

This one was a pumpkin creme brulee that I found here:

It's not burnt, it just comes out dark because of the pumpkin.
 Also thanks to the pumpkin it tastes more like fluffy pumpkin pie than creme 
brulee, but it was still a good fall dessert.

Oh yeah, also- Steven and I tied a blanket!

Who knew my week off from work would be so productive? :)
