Thankful Thursday::j for jam

Today I am thankful for homemade jam...well, actually home canning which is something I enjoy doing each fall.  Many years ago we lived on an acreage with a massive garden and my husband's elderly uncle shared many tips with me.  Even though my city garden is much, much smaller I still enjoy canning to this day.  Without fail I like canning dill & bread + butter pickles, tomatoes, salsa, apple butter & juice, and of course, jam...made with blueberries, choke cherries, sand cherries, rhubarb and crabapples from our garden.
