Loaded with Plums
The trees out at the cabin were loaded with plums this year. There is a long row of trees along a road where we walked in the mornings there. I’ve watched them grow all summer. And finally…..
I picked them.
And washed them.
And cooked the pitted plums with a cup of water to get all that good juice going.
And once the cooked plums cooled a little, I squeezed the wonderful plum juice.
And then back into the pot the juice goes with sugar and Sure Jell. I’ve used Sure Jell for years and it always makes great jelly. Just follow their directions.
Ladle the cooked jelly into the prepared jars…
The jars go into the pot of hot water for several minutes to finish off the cooking process.
And then you have the finished product ready to share with friends. (Notice Truman, always in the background, giving instructions.)
