Challenge 175: Party Time

How about some of my Mom's home made strawberry preserves?

 And we need plenty of black coffee to go with all those desserts.

 After dessert someone has to wash the dishes (that's my Mom at the sink).

 All 3 photos were taken during my trip to see family over the Thanksgiving holiday.

    I Love Home made Strawberry preserves. There were fields and fields of Strawberries that my Granny and Grand Pa owned . They grew them to sell and of course, My Granny did everything with a Strawberry that you could do. We always had plenty of Strawberries to eat. I Loved 'em and still do.

    I Love the coffee too.

    But, Ohhhhh me , I sure don't like cleaning up the dishes. Giggle,..... Nice Shots Lynda~!!

    Home made jams are always the best. Like the steam coming off the coffee and the battle field after the party I know too well. Good shots

    Thank you Lynda for your contributions to the party!! Home-made preserves always taste so much better than shop-bought ones, and Strawberry is my fave flavour. Ahh, yes....a good strong coffee is always welcome!! But , oh dear.....washing the dishes...the least fun part of the party!!! LOL. But, it has to be done!!

    Love the steam coming off the coffee and the jam jar sparkling in the light. Your poor mom - hope someone gave her a hand.

      There was lots and lots of help. Just happened to catch her at the sink while taking the dessert photos. My Uncle and Aunt (Mom's brother) hosted the event, they are keeping the family Thanksgiving tradition alive and passing that tradition along to the younger generation.
