Bluesy Green with Cranberry, Wheat Ale and Elderberry Rose Mint Jelly!

Hello Everyone!

I am very excited to now have a few select Quilter's Comfort Small batch jellies in Brown County, Indiana!   Now available in Nashville are:  Bluesy Green with Cranberry, Wheat Ale and Elderberry Rose Mint Jelly at the Brown County Potters shop, in Nashville Indiana!

Wondering what it taste like?  An appetizer on the Upland, 11th Street , Bloomington menu, list "Local jelly"  with carabatta cheese and local ham (this jelly is the Wheat Ale)!  So check it out!  Go sample and taste the flavor of delicious beer jelly; or wait for or it to be on local Bloomington shelves (Farmer House Museum), or get a taste when I am at a local market event and usually offering tastings at most event, or fly free and send me an email from Bloomington, we can do a web dance, and you can pick up your order at the Farmer House Museum. 

Haven't tasted these jellies?  Yes, There will be opportunities to sample the jellies and other unique seasoning flavors!

Next Saturday,  April 23 , 2016 is the Yelp event at Upland on 11th Street (this event full).  30 Yelpers will be there to tour the new brew facility and to meet and sample from a few of the Upland vendors.  
Quilter's Comfort will be there!  Planning to have mini eclairs with Upland beer jelly  and other jellies for tasting.  I will also have Everything Dip; and in an ideal world, my sourdough bread started from an Upland brew!  These offerings will be paired with Upland beer.   All this, and I hope to have a surprise or too.  All depends on how the experiments work out!
I will tell you that I am playing with some of my tesselations and will use a few in my table display!
Want to taste now!  reserve us for a tasting!

Question.  Someone recently, someone asked me if I was a Unicorn.  What does this mean?  Still mulling this one over.

Springtime Excitement! Teas on the Road to Japan and YELP GREAT GET AWAY to BLOOMINGTON, INDIANA

HAPPY SPRING UPDATE!

New life is everywhere.  Plants emerging from ground.  Some branches budding, others already leafing out.  A day ago, I saw the first flush of red bud blossom.  Soon the entire ridge will be popping with who knows how many shades of green and this contrasting pink.

A week ago I wondered when the fast paced leafing would begin.  The growth that eventually obscures my view of the road.  It is fast upon me.


Strawberry 15 herbal tea  (pictured above) along with Rose Mint and Elderberry Rose Mint Jellies traveled with my friend Yuko to Japan!  The Rose Mint jelly was a request from an admirer there.

On the way - Farmer House Museum will soon have:  Farmer House Garden Blend, Spearmint Lift and Lemonbalm(812) 336-5597, They are located at 529 N College Ave (10th and College), Bloomington, IN 4




Some Quilter's Comfort jellies will soon be available in a Brown County shop!  More about that later!



 
As a Vendor to Upland, Quilter's Comfort is participating in  YELP'S Great Getaway.



 I plan on baking baby eclairs and filling them with beer jelly crafted from Upland beers; sourdough biscuit or maybe a jelly scone and something with the Everything Plus Dip!

Enjoy!

Hello,

Teas, Seasonings, Jellies, oh yes!  It has been a busy time, and I have been enjoying my work with Quilter's Comfort!  I am still breaking out in a very big smile each time I think of my jelly being consumed by Upland diners!  Wheat Ale Jelly, yes!  And what turned out to be the season favorite, Chocolate Raspberry Stout, especially Bear Kisses. Which most will have to wait for next year for more, as it turned out to be a seasonal brew.  Or maybe I will find myself experimenting with another dark beer.  Something really wonderful happens when you introduce fruit and chocolate into beer!  Wine too!


Roses for You



So much going on!  Last weekend I had Quilter's Comfort products with me at the BLOOM Mag Artist Showcase in the Bloomington, IN Convention Center.  I appreciate having a few teas and seasonings there with my visual arts. 

Yesterday, I dropped off a few small quilts to the Farmer House Museum for their annual quilt show opening first Friday in March!

Our new tea DOWNSTREAM is luscious, fragrant and a smooth herbal joy! 



On March 19th, Quilter's Comfort products will be with me at Women's Market in the Eiteljorg Museum!   I am excited to introduce my series of Seasoned Greetings from Indiana!  I am still deciding if it is okay to use this greeting for teas and spices, or whether it would be best to also make Herbal Greetings from Indiana!  

Abstracted Summer V


Roses for You is and Abstracted Summer V are two of the images that will grace the cover of  Quilter's Comfort's Herbal Art Seasoned Greeting cards!  Nice to look at, frame-able and delicious!


Herbal blessings!
