She helped me make some peach lemon jam.
It was my first time canning anything, hers too.
The jam was delicious and we both loved making it. We are planning on making some more jam soon, maybe some to give for Christmas.
Earlier this summer I went to the farmer's market and bought A LOT of blackberries.
Jerome LOVES blackberries.
I brought them home, washed them all and put them in the refrigerator. I had planned to make blackberry jam.....but Jerome ate half the blackberries.
I froze the rest of the blackberries so that I could make blackberry jam.
I think Natalie and I will be making some blackberry jam soon.
