What is Mirabellen Liquer? Never heard of it. What could be used in it's place?

Hi Suzette, I'm sure there are quite a handful of label/signs oriented design books available for inspiration. Anything you would draw or design on real paper can easily be scanned and printed multiple times. Or, alternatively, you could always contact a graphic designer to come up with a few ideas/designs and have her/him spent an hour or two to throw something together.

I am looking for labels for my many varieties of pickles, jams, conserves, marmalades, and curds. I am not very artistically creative, nor am I very savy with a computer to design my own labels. Could anyone suggest a spot to have labels created?

Your Reine Claude jam looks delicious. I never wanted to make it since they're sweet, and I assumed the color would be muddy brown...your photo made me a believer! Will head to the market tomorrow to get some of the last RC's of the season. Beautiful photos, as usual, btw...

Dear Fatemeh, I forgot to mention, Mirabellen are yellow plums - especially wide spread in Austria. Very delicious as jam, liqueur,... Hi Tanvi, I'd say June Taylor is a superb means to comfort you over the non-availability of Reine Claudes ;) Joey, just checked out your blog again, please keep posting about new jam experiments, as I'm still in a "jam mood"... Hi Ni, I haven’t come across Davidson's plum before - thanks for the link! Hi Ana, you're right, they are quite sweet. However, the fruit that is too sweet for me has yet to be discovered ;) Ed, the knife is actually a birthday gift from dear friends from Colorado. I really treasure it! Hi Andrea, hooraaay! Somebody from Munich! In case you can't find them down at Viktualienmarkt, just ask for Leo's Obstandl, they should have them still... Dear Hande! Thanks for your sweet comment! I hope we could meet up some time in the future and share a little something at a coffee-bar or restaurant of your choice...?

Nicky, i liked this post of yours especially.... I also receive gifts from our cleaning lady and I think I like you already (as opposed to, or in addition to, just loving your blog, the photos, the recipes....). I have seen so many people abuse their cleaning ladies and just don't get it.
