Last year our raspberry bushes produced all of 5 berries. Total. This year? Berries-o-rama. O and I picked a butt ton of berries this morning and made some jam. 17 jars of it to be specific. Now, granted, not all of that is straight raspberry. I found some really lovely peaches at the store when we went (the first time) to get lemons, so there is some raspberry, some peach, and lots of raspberry/peach. Yummeh!

See?
   

I think a few of the jars were hiding from the camera, but you get the idea. And aren’t those new Ball jars THE SHIT??? You know which ones I’m talking about. The wonderful little flat lookin’ ones with the silver lids? I love them, other than the fact that they do not stack well. At all. Serious design flaw there, but my god they’re pretty. And the bottom picture? That was me taking the picture from a funny angle. The jars aren’t really leaning nearly as much as they look like they are in that picture. I swear.
