Raspberry Jam
This morning I headed out with three sisters and a niece to pick berries at Potter Road Raspberries. Brenda and Mike Mahn have a beautiful spot with several varieties of raspberries, including some fall berries that will be available for picking until the snow flies. With the sun warming our shoulders, we spent a couple peaceful hours picking. Sixty-two pints later we headed into the kitchen and whipped up 134 jars of jam.
