I feed animals and gathered eggs.
I swept and mopped.
We had a good rain earlier, so tried to keep busy inside.
My daughter and I watched the last Harry Potter, as I had made a promise to watch with her.
About to take a shower and get ready for prayer meeting.

We got over an inch and a half of rain, so no need to water the garden. I picked black raspberries and made jam instead.

I had a thunderstorm blow through last night. It dropped 1.13" of rain in under 30 minutes.

Picked cherries and made cherry jam.

Do you ever make jam with your own honey?

I used a low-sugar pectin this time in my jam, and it set up. The last batch, with regular pectin, didn't. I used honey instead of sugar in both.

I don't use honey in jam. It will change the flavor. The recipes I use produce the desired tastes. No need to mess with a good thing.

I use the low sugar Sure Jell and the full sugar recipe and have never had a failure to set while using it.

I have had failure to set using regular Sure Jell if everything isn't done just right.

The other thing that can be problematic is trying to make a double batch. I stick to the single batch method.

Yes, it did, but I liked the flavor.

I'm hoping I see the low sugar pectin on sale so that I can stock up. $4 a box. Or maybe I'm out of touch; I haven't bought pectin in a long time.

I use honey in my strawberry jam. It's really good

I played the piano.
I cleaned out the fridge.
I saw a raccoon in the front yard while the hens were out!
