During our jam session, G'Pa provided the music, intermittent Spanish lyrics of songs I didn't recognize.
Well, making jam is easier than I thought, as well as relatively mess free if you are as efficient as my sister. I love learning new things. Stuff like this is especially neat because it makes all those gradeschool science classes come to life and make more sense and it is functional too. My sister, who is quite science savvy, was a great teacher.
After four quarts of strawberries, a great stress reducing mash session, fourteen, yes, I said fourteen cups of sugar, boiling and adding pectin...17 and 1/2-8 ounce jars of strawberry jam.
We taste tested it, of course, and it tingled the taste buds! I'm intersted to see if they all sealed well and don't grow anything funky.
