Jack, Jovie, and I welcomed summer by preparing a batch of strawberry freezer jam. The strawberries are local, and were so delicious. They made some darn good jam (and syrup for pancakes and ice cream). I didn't get any jam made last year because my transition between jobs kept me busier than I would have liked during jam season, so kicking this summer off with jam making felt really nice! Here are my cuties...they're so proud of their strawberry jam!
