Strawberry Jammin!

Yes! I did it. I made strawberry jam by myself for the first time ever! Jeff loves strawberry jam. Don't we all?


Whenever I eat strawberry freezer jam, I always have memories of my dad making Saturday morning breakfast. Biscuts, sausage and gravy. Then strawberry jam on the leftover biscuts. However, I didn't know that the reason I loved it so much is because it has twice as much sugar as it does fruit. So, I decided I would only put in 10 cups of sugar instead of the 12 it called for. It's a little tart but yummy.
