Just your average Monday night

Oh you know.  Just makin' jam.  From berries I picked myself.  Cause that's totally how I roll.


Don't mind the bravado.  I'm actually scared shitless.  Strawberries are everywhere, I'm unsure exactly what a "rolling boil" is when describing molten liquid strawberry.  And who knew strawberries would expand approximately 500% when heated??!!

Wish me luck please.

laugh out loud, Jill ! Expansion is an understatement......

How did it turn out? The first time I tried to make jam the recipe didn't technically say to stir it, so the whole thing burned to the bottom and tasted like cigarettes!

How did the jam end up? I want to do the whole u-pick/freezer jam thing myself this summer so let me know if you liked your recipe. Thanks!
