Have you ever tried the jelly made from grape juice? Just wondering. I don’t use enough jelly to really justify making it, though that strawberry jam is inspiring.

I also want to say that my children are just as prone to be in their undies as yours and (I am sure), have of the children in this country. Really, why dirty another piece of clothing? Also, they just seem to take of their clothes whenever they want.

My sister Laura used to “undress” in the car on the way to church. That girl loved to be naked….and she turned out just fine

Thanks !! I still use my favorite SureJell recipe. I tried this year to stock up the freezer after picking my own fresh berries. Praying for no power outage this year! (lost 3 batches last year with many loaves of homemade zucchini bread)

I have used it before myself. Made a super tart ans sweet cherry star fruit jelly. My step mother in law uses that to make blackberry strawberry jam. (don’t tell her I can notice the difference)

I’m excited to try your recipe. I’ve always loved freezer jam. : ) I’m so glad I’m not the only one who’s kids aren’t dressed at 3 in the afternoon.

By the way, I think we have the same table.

Have a great weekend!

*Salivating* Goodness does some jam and toast sound really good right about now…or some jam on an English muffin…hmmnn…dang it! I don’t need carbs at eleven o’clock at night!!!

The Circus crew jam sure looks yummy, though! I’m sure that whole making it in your undies really adds a “special something” to the process.

You’ll appreciate the fact that I was sending the kids to play out back while Derek grilled and Noah had on a shirt and a diaper…I sent him out. Derek sent him back in for shorts. C’mon…I think he needs to read some Circus Life so he realizes playing outside in your diaper is okay! (With a shirt on…)
