TWISTED SISTA.
If I was a REALLY COOL MUSIC BUFF I would tell you how growing up rocking out to "We're Not Going To take it" inspired the making of these twisting, free wheeling trinkets!
BUT.........
I'm not. I'm a dork. Even though I'm married to someone whose life revolves around music, lived with music buffs all through school, and have one really awesome friend now (ahem...nigheve). Music is still just a background for life.
In fact I had to google twisted sister just to come up with a song title. shhhhh don't tell.
I prefer the serenity of quiet to loud beats and mumur of NPR to lyrics.
Inspired by windchimes and then stuck with a fun name to fit their style. These babies will stand out when they grace your shoulder. Check them out!!!
What else has been consuming my time you may ask???? CANNING!!!
Once deemed too hard, time consuming, hot, stupid by this snotty teenager has now become a fun bonding experience with my wonderfully industrious, nutty modern day june cleaver mother.
Lessons Learned....
1. Don't let mother get distracted from canning with the idea of artistic photos, she's easily distracted and you may not finish canning till late at night. 2. Thank GOD for large food processing plants. Canning is fun. But hard work. We worked all day into the night and had 36 jars between the two of us. Stuffing beans into a jar is time consuming.
Laboring over beans.

I went to whole foods found a jar that I thought was pretty cheap so I am going to pickle a jar of peppers. Also known as "pikliz" according to Haitians. Not quite the endeavor that you and your mother undertook but I'm satisfied!
I want to try them!!!
