Today I entered my plum jam and bread & butter pickles in the local county fair. I did this mostly because the bee guild that I belong too needs the parking passes, but it is also fun to enter these local events. In 2005, I entered jam in the state fair, and received a second place award (no, that is not 2nd place, as in 1st and 2nd, all jams that are between 80-89 points receive a 2nd place ribbon). Not bad for my first time. However, not sure I have done much better this time!
On Monday, I will be making more jam, probably peach, and will post the recipe and photos. Making jam and canning is time consuming, but it is not rocket science, and I look forward to sharing more information about how anyone can do this project.
