Thanks to Cheesemakin' Mama's post about her raw strawberry jam, I made some raw blackberry jam. I don't have pictures - I don't know how to post pictures yet; only my children know how to and they aren't home - but the kids tried it and loved it. I used blackberries picked from down the road and honey from our neighbor up the road. Thanks, Jackie!
Apple season in Sebastopol is big, well, big for Sebastopol, a town of 7, 000. There are so many apple trees here, that people beg you to come pick apples. Sam, Elijah and I picked a huge box of apples, and I canned 10 quarts of apple sauce. They are beautiful! I borrowed a steamer canner from a friend, and I was amazed at how easy it is to can this way.
On another note, my boys, including my husband, have all left for a three day camping trip to the coast. Scott also took my 2 nephews. That's one Dad and 5 boys. It leaves Mom home alone. Oh what will I do with myself......
