Jam is almost bizarrely easy to make, and if it doesn't
set up, you can call it syrup.

Raine made homemade jellies last year for the first time. She wasn't
aware of the difference between high and low pectin fruit and didn't
add Certo or green apples to any of them. Some set up and some

Though I am aware of high- and low-pectin fruit, I'm not

didn't. She was initially upset but I told her to just change the
labels and hold her head up high when gifting people with her
syrups. Her not so gelled wild chokecherry jelly was especially
delicious on ice cream, pound cake and pancakes.

Excellent save. Thanks, pops.

Sounds interesting, though if it were a proper syrup, the
drink would be on the sweet side for a daiquiri.

Neither do I, but I know to look it up before starting. Now Raine
does too!

Speaking of family and young cooks Neekha was just here for a four
day weekend along with her boyfriend, who she has moved in with.
(Yeah, she's all grown up now.) They split their time between our
place, her mom's family camp site (Betty is out of rehab [fingers
crossed] and looking for a second chance with her two children) and
Folk On The Rocks, our mid-summer three day outdoor music concert
(fun by not nearly at a Woodstock level).

And Lexi and Charlee are flying up (unaccompanied and with a plane
change in Edmonton) on July 30. Lexi is growing up too; she has a
boyfriend old enough to drive!)

Too sweet for my tastes but with a little adjusting ...

This just might choke you ...
