After picking the wild grapes, the garden study packing. With some minor exceptions it is now clear and all the furniture in it, three bookshelves, two file cabinets, a work bench, a drafting table and a desk (which sounds like a lot I know) can go either to the consignment shop or into storage for staging.

The bookshelf that held all my gardening related books is, too, almost empty. After I parse the files, quite a few, I’ll be ready to begin in the study itself. Kate has gotten a good start both downstairs and upstairs. We’re making progress, slow and steady, just like we planned.
Kate made grape jelly today from the grapes I picked, 24 quarter pints and 12 half pints. As we watched the end of State of Play, the musical clicking of jelly jars sealing punctuated the evening. In spite of my low carb ways I sampled it. Pretty damn good.
