What did you accomplish today?

A friend gave me some dandelion jelly today, I wasn't sure if I wanted it but it's pretty good. Kindly looks like piss and it is thin like piss too, so y'all can guess how apprehensive I was about trying it. It's a lot better than piss, I will admit.
Last year she gave me some watermelon rine and peach jelly, it tasted like watermelon rine.... not that great.

Was the watermelon jelly thin too? Would more pectin fix that? I mean, obviously during the cooking process...but is anyone nice enough to let her know?

Does she know she makes terrible jelly?

I’m kidding, I appreciate any sorta home crafted stuff, even if it ends up going down the garbage disposal. Really the thought that counts there.

Unless you’re hungry, and there’s nothing else to eat...then it’s just sort of a travesty, so I guess I contradict myself.

The watermelon jelly was thick like normal jelly. I just don't like the taste of rine, I'm more of a melon heart kinda guy. I'm going to give her a bunch of muscadines this fall and see what she can do, hmmm now that I think about it I might give them to her husband and let him make beer instead. He makes good beer and I like it more than jelly.
 
I moved a shit load of sand/gravel over the last 2 day's leveling a section of my front yard and I'm only, maybe, 1/2 done with the rough fill. All this shovelling has totally fucked my wrists and hands. I'm in so much pain that sleep is impossible right now and I'm having trouble just holding my pipe my hands are so weak, I've dropped it 3 times now.
