We were out of bread, milk, bagels and berries! Heck of a way to not have breakfast! It was pretty obvious that we needed to make a trip to town. After a bit of discussion, we decided to head into Costco and restock. You can tell that much of the summer produce is coming on. The boxes in the produce area were stacked almost over my head!
Todd had been checking what was left in the refrigerator from the Graduation Party. Sister Roxy had brought several packages of frozen raspberries that we had served for desserts with angel food cake and whipped cream. There were several left and he suggested that it might be a good idea to make them into jam. (Hint, hint!)
So we made a stop on our way back from Costco at the local Safeway store to pick up pectin and sugar. When we got back, Todd had already put jars in the dishwasher for sterilization. There were enough berries left to make two batches of freezer jam. We ended up with six pints and six half-pints. They sure looked pretty sitting on the counter. It was an easy job as when it came time to stir the berries and sugar with the pectin, I had Kyra and Havela to help!
