Sweet, Sweet Jams

One day, hopefully later this year, we will have a pantry that is stocked full with jars and jars of food that we have canned.  Oh how I swoon over pictures of pantries that have already accomplished this!  In the meantime, however, I am finding pride and joy in the few items that we have canned...including (but not limited to) these delicious jams!!!

The strawberry jam was created last weekend, is amazing, and will be even more amazing when made with home grown strawberries (fingers crossed) next summer!


And this beauty is what was created during my very first canning experience last September.  Believe it or not, we had not cracked open one of these gorgeous jars until last weekend!  I know, I know...shame on me!  But man...was it worth the wait!  We will definitely be growing a lot of yellow taxi tomatoes this year just so we can make a ton of this again!



There really is nothing like a little taste of summer in the dead of winter!
