The Strawberry Hour

One hour + 5 pounds of strawberries + 8 pounds of sugar (gasp!) + 5 boxes of pectin + 5 Tablespoons lemon juice + one handsome kid (straight out of bed and still in jammies is best) EQUALS:

Yum!

My official stirrer - No complaining and a smile the entire time!
Jeff helped me hull the berries then Spencer stayed with me through all 5 batches and stirred and stirred and stirred!  We were down to our last jar of freezer jam.  I'm so happy to have our supply replenished.  It's been a productive morning! :)

  1. I'm afraid I'm going to have to do this. I made a bunch last summer, but our supply is also almost gone.

  2. Nancy,
    I wish we lived close enough that I could come help. It's so much faster and easier (and more fun) with two!
