TRYING TO GET GEARED UP!

I'm trying to get some things together so we'll have something to sell at Columbia Farmers' market in a couple of weeks...yikes! Yesterday I made some honey ointment which is really good for lip balm, and rough elbows, knees and heels. Also good as an ointment to put on scrapes, bruises, minor burns & cuts as honey is antibacterial and works as a humectant, meaning it pulls moisture to the skin. Today I made 27 1/2 pints of Damson jam. I need to get some more jams & jellies made and get my freezer emptied out! I would also like to get some more lye soap made, but time will tell...!
