Makin' Jam

I love homemade jams and jellies!  And I had NO IDEA they are so easy to make!

My cousins' wife, Adrianne, offered to teach me how to make jam one day so we set up a day and I headed to Co. Springs for my lesson!  She already had the fruit frozen (which she was glad to use to help empty her freezer) and I brought jars and the sure jel!

And she was right - it was surprisingly easy to make the jam!  We made peach and concord grape - I've already used up almost a jar of the peach!!

To make the jam taste even better, she made a loaf of homemade bread that morning and sent it home with me  - gosh it was good!

Since most of the fruit is in season now, I am already stocking up on fruit to freeze for later jam making!
