When life hands you berries.....





Make Jam!

And boy, is that what we have been up to the last 2 days! Yesterday brought a cool, rainy morning...but that didn't hamper our mission to pick strawberries at a local farm. We had a great time, and we really felt the fruit (ahem) of our labors.


This was my first personal attempt at canning anything. Thanks to our friend Courtenay, for her guidance and prolonged patience, we now have 6 pints of fresh strawberry jam in our pantry!


All of that work, plus a remaining 10 lbs. of berries for making smoothies! If I see one more strawberry, it will be too soon! Just kidding!
