The last few days have been a bit relaxed, generally speaking, so I decided to try a project.

Jam.

I had no idea until I started researching it that there's a sizable initial outlay for equipment, but since it's all reusable I figured the investment was worth it. Homemade jam is a good thing to have around, right?

So, I bought jars, pots, lids, etc., and then the ingredients for a very simple recipe for apricot jam I'd found. And this morning I set about making the jam.

My fingers are now burned, my kitchen smells like burnt sugar, and I suspect I'm never going to be able to get the spilled jam off my stovetop, but.

I HAVE MADE JAM.

I'm going to eat it with some fresh bread from the corner bakery and salad for supper.
