Yesterday afternoon, the wind whipped across the field and the temperature dropped to -22 F. The truck wouldn't turn over. The car wouldn't start. The computer froze up {momentarily}. The hinge on the wood stove door broke.
But we had strawberries. Just past their prime organic strawberries, free for the taking from the market. I wrote about this delightful place here. Not good for eating, but perfect for making jam.
Can you believe it... fresh strawberry jam in February? It's like summer in a jar.
Fortunately, the truck and car both started this morning. The computer is fine. The wood stove door is still broken, but it's functional until spring when we can replace it.
And, I get to eat homemade jam on toast for breakfast.
Take that, winter.
jammie!!! So delicious to have youre own home made food, Love it.
