Free chinchilla to a good home!

Anyone looking for a nice sweet docile chinchilla? Kiona is perfect for you. She is a sweet grey colored softer than velvet chinchilla. She is nearing the age of two on July 31st. Mind you chinchillas can live for 20 years. She happens to be very friendly at night when she is awake due to her nocturnal behavior. Kiona is wonderful with children as well as adults. She hates rainy days, halloween costumes, vegtables and pinon nuts.She loves almonds, raisins, peanuts,dust baths, her mom and chew toys. She also loves to chew up my window blinds,my flip flops,my printer buttons, my laptop cable, (which is why my computer is not working now), my new oak bed and whatever else she can get her teeth on which is practically everything! For this reson I have to blog from work and my phone because Kiona is the reason why my computer won't work. Take a close look at the teeth picture and let me know how such small teeth can cause a world of damage. I will be allowing interviews to give me some good ideas of prospective parents for her. P.S. she does give kisses and will wake you up for school by crying if you are running late. P.P.S.Interviews are mandatory.

From grapes to yummy Jelly



A couple of weeks ago for my birthday my little sister and mom and Dad bought me an awesome power juicer. So I found some grapes on sale and juiced them and then froze the juice. Yesterday my mon and I thawed the juice and made some jelly with it. We ended up making tons of jelly and ran out of pectin and sugar before we ran out of juice! We made grape jelly and grape cranberry jelly and they they turned out awesome. The color in the pictures doesn't look quite like normal grape jelly colored however, I realized I had used red grapes instead of concord grapes but it still tastes fantastic. Oh yeah I learned two things yesterday, doubling the recipe does not ruin it and liquid pectin is awesome! In case anybody need to know.
