Can you stand to see one more batch........Strawberry ruhbarb Jam & Hearty Vegetable soup. I did 3 batches of the soup & was so tired that in the end I cooked the rest of it in the crock pot then transferred it to my stock pot to bring to a rolling boil. When I made the jam I didn't pay attention & forgot to put in the Certo So I had to redo the batch & ended up loosing a little in the re processing! sigh..........

35301You are hard working, all looks fine.
This time I have to make jars over jars with plum jam. It is not really jam, in german we call this "Pflaumenmus", you must cook it over hours but it has a great taste.

What she doesn't know is that you have already WON the competition...you have raise a daughter who is independent and productive and can manage on her own using the skills you have given her. Besides she has a long way to go to catch up to your skills and talent! hugs :-0
