J is for Jam

We be jammin'I have taken the canning plunge, putting up three pints of strawberry jam. Canning is easy! It takes a lot of time, though. Hulling two quarts of berries, boiling them up, so on and so forth, the whole thing took almost two hours. I think the next batch will be put up in half-pints; these jars are a little on the largish side. I don't think they will last long, nonetheless.
