Raspberry Jam Day

Even tho it rained all summer and there was little sunshine, there were LOTS of raspberries to pick at June's and some currants, raspberries and rhubarb at my place to make jam out of. But before the work first we had to have lunch and a fruit tart for dessert. Ruth mashed the berries. Shelley cooked up the fruit, sugar and pectin. June enjoyed last year's rhubarb jam and then got to work, ha ha. Judith was chief cook and jam pourer. In the end we made 20 jars of raspberry-currant-crowberry jam, plain raspberry and raspberry-rhubarb jam.
