We be Jammin'!

So, last year I failed to make Strawberry Jam.  It wasn't a good thing and we resorted to store bought jams... not quite the same.  So, this year the first time I saw a great deal on Strawberries I jumped on it.  I made it with my momma and it took MUCH longer than I'd anticipated, like 3 1/2 hours.  But it was worth it.  Now I have a years worth of Strawberry Jam, and Jay loves me more than ever.  (I figure the more in love with me he is, the better; and Strawberry Jam can definitely add to the love barometer.)
I only added this picture cause it's a great belly shot.  (Kennedy took it).  It may be embarrassing now, but I am sure there will come a day when I will actually enjoy looking at this picture... maybe.

Love the belly shot! I need to make some jam too! What a great idea. I think I am going to focus on doing some canning this year. I just went to the grocery store and a can of pears is $2!!

I need to be more like you! Making jam is intimidating. I loved that last shot though!

I love your belly! Oh you will love it some day for sure!
You are so domestic to make jam. That is the best. Where did you find the strawberries? I love to make jam and look for deals for jam making but haven't found any super great ones.
