A Taste of Summer

During these cold, snowy days, my thoughts drift to spring. I always feel like I am just marking time until the nights get shorter and the soil reappears. During the darkest days of December, one's spirits often need a little lift, and fresh raspberry jam can do the trick! A taste of summer in a jar..........mmmmmmmmmmm. Nothing better. I thawed out berries that I had picked and frozen in August, but if you want to make jam, just go buy a couple of packages of unsweetened frozen raspberries, and follow the no cook jam recipe inside the box of Certo liquid pectin. So easy my 6 year old can make jam (and he does, but usually drips it all over the floor while he's at it). Then make fresh biscuits or scones and savor the flavors. :-) Happy New Year!
