We were able to go raspberry picking this summer. Forty pounds of berries later, it's time to make jam!
With the excellent help of Elsa and Camille, I spent an afternoon making delicious raspberry jam. This was only the first couple of batches through the canner. We also have been working our way through the bags in the freezer. I am now a full convert to laying out the berries on a baking tray to freeze first, then putting them in bags. It is so much less trouble up front than I expected and much easier to take out a handful at a time for baking or snacking.
The boys were no help at all.
