jam


Wet day hobbies this week included jam making (strawberries and blackcurrants) and jam label making...what a happy coincidence that they both happened on the same day, otherwise jam with no labels or labels with no jam.

We eat a lot more jam than is good for us in this house, but if you make it yourself it suddenly becomes that little bit healthier...
