My mom gave me a year's worth of coupons for doing things with her or her doing things for me each month as a Christmas gift last year. One of the things was a cooking day. I had never made jam before and wanted to learn, so she spent the morning teaching me to make strawberry jam (from strawberries locally grown right down the road from her) and peach jam (from Missouri peaches the boys and I picked at an orchard the other day). We had so much fun (or at least I did) and I'm so excited to have some goodies to taste or to share.
It was doubly good for me cause she took me out to lunch that day too. It's been a long time since it was just my mom and I out for the day. It was really good to just sit and talk and enjoy being with each other. Thanks Mom - you're wonderful and I love you!!

I loved helping you make jam. It was a fun day and hope we do it again soon. Is blackberry jam next?
