That's WILD

12 jars of

Yummy

Wild Plum Jam

Isn't it gorgeous!

so to recap:

If you take this:

and Pit them

by slicing off the skin and

the tiny

tiny

tiny

bit of fleshy pulp attached to said skin ...

and add sugar

and lots and lots of hard work

separating the pits and skins from

the tiny amount of pulp and juice you actually get ..

cooking it down, adding some sure-jel, canning it.

It is totally worth all effort expended!

The color is Captivating!

The flavor is Fabulous!

I will hoard it over the next year,

allowing the family

to eat it exclusively

on Homemade Biscuits!

and we won't make it next year.

Wild Plum that is...

simply because we

no longer own the property

that has the silly tree.

But it has been fun.

and educational and exciting for the children.

:)

and me.

Next time,

we make Apricot or Peach

or something like that.
