Just a quick post with some pics from our jam making last night!

These berries were so sweet, they only required one cup of sugar.  We only had a quart of berries, so we cut the recipe in half, but even so it called for 3 cups of sugar. This made three half-pints of jam.

Wow, it’s so easy to make jam with only a quart of berries.  Easy peasy!
