Jam Fest

Last month Eryn, Mom and I made jars and jars of strawberry jam. Now it's raspberry season, so I was at it again. I stopped this morning at the Parsons Farms stand at Carmen Drive and Kruse Way and snagged one of two remaining raspberry flats. I also scored some blackberries, Rainier cherries and rhubarb.
Knowing that the precious berries wouldn't last, I got right to work, rinsing, smashing, mixing, ladling, capping and labeling my latest round of freezer jam.
I made batches of raspberry, raspberry/blackberry and raspberry/blackberry/rhubarb. My freezer is now full to the brim with jam to last all year! YUM!
