HAPPY FATHER'S DAY - CARD

I think I told you all that I had my eye on a certain stamp over at Whimsie Doodles.....well here it is.

Below is a quick Father's Day card and little gift that I made for my Dad and FIL. The little gift is actually a bottle of homemade Apple Bar-b-que Sauce that I whipped up yesterday. The bottle is a 14 oz. ketchup bottle that I emptied out. The recipe below is enough to make one bottle of sauce.


APPLE BAR-B-QUE SAUCE

1/2 c. apple jelly
1 (8 oz.) can tomato sauce
3 oz. tomato paste
1/4 c. vinegar
2 T. light brown sugar
2 T. water
1 t. hot sauce
1/4 t. salt
1/4 t. ground cloves
Bring all ingredients to a boil and simmer for 20-25 minutes. Cool, cover and refrigerate.
