Hello!
It was a fairly dark and dismal day out there on the North West Coast of Tasmania… I made the sensible choice and stayed inside with the fire going, ugg boots on and a kitchen plan.
I still have plenty of produce in the freezer and its a good time of year to work through cooking it so I will have some room in there for next seasons produce.
Thought I could stock up on some raspberry jam first!
Couple of pounds of fruit, same of sugar and a bit of lemon juice – fresh of course as I raided Ruby’s tree on the way out yesterday!
How do you jam makers test your jam for readiness? I put a bit on a cold plate into the fridge for a bit, then see if it is still too runny or not.
Of course – its mandatory to have some fresh baked bread to test it out on…
At 10pm at night the trick is to only have the one slice!
I also cooked part one of my BBQ sauce, but will finish that off tomorrow, along with a banana raspberry loaf and a slow cooked beef stew.
Hope your day was delicious too
Cheers!
Love your JAM making atire!

I am nothing, if not stylish! 😀 (I had more of the jam on my toast for brekkie this morning! Yummo) How’s the weather in Georgia? We’ve got some sunshine right now but I see clouds looming!
