I broke my cardinal rule…

So, I broke my cardinal rule today. It was cleaning day (read not me cleaning!) and my rule is that I should never mess up my kitchen on cleaning day. We eat simple suppers, and if they are messy, we eat outside (ok, I don’t make my family eat outside during winter). Auntie V cooked a whole mess of corn, took it off the cob and froze it. However, she left no sign what-so-ever that the kitchen had been touched. Thinking I could be like her, I decided to tackle the 4L of blueberries that I bought today.

So I decided to make cooked blueberry jam. (I am a cooked-jam-virgin) I thought I could do it in a nice tidy way but I was wrong. There were blueberries everywhere, sugar everywhere, and hot jam everywhere. To top it off I sliced my finger on the food processor blade. Anyways, my kitchen is not so clean but I do have some jars of jam to show for it! Next on the list is another batch of peaches. Sorry no pictures!
