jammin'

A little pick-me-up snack after school today. This jam never lasts long in our house, it is a family favourite for sure. The recipe I've adapted from one I found here  but I've cut the sugar in half and added a splash of lemon juice. The jam is still plenty sweet and thickens up nicely to spread on toast. I like the idea of warming up the sugar first which is a good idea if you are using organic sugar as it tends to be slightly more granular. Yum!

Oh, and yes, that is hot chocolate on the stove. Spring is only around the corner according to the calendar but everything is snow-covered here once again. Here is a good source for this deliciousness! (And here, too!)
