The last word

I won't keep posting about jam, as I know it may be of limited interest...but I am pleased with my store cupboard full of good things. Our annual village show is approaching, and I usually enter a couple of jars, so we'll see if all this jam-talk actually amounts to anything in the cut throat world of competitive preserve-making.

I have even found a use for my little lace mats, which I love, but never really know what to do with: they can be jam pot covers for now. Perfect.
