We Be Jammin'!

We decided to go strawberry picking....

So, we headed to Harvold Farms in Carnation....

Where Harrison and I picked 17 pounds of strawberries!!!

This was an interesting specimen!

When we paid, the super cute guy who worked there serenaded us with a song....

Now, to make jam! First, crush the strawberries....

Stir every five minutes...

That's a lot of stirring!

Measure precisely!

These are the strawberries I didn't make into jam - wow, we had a LOT!

Add TONS of sugar.....

17 pints of strawberry jam! YUMMY!

Who knew such a little fruit could yield such big results?

The humble strawberry.
