Jelly with a Punch!
I've been trying to use up things in our large freezer--mainly because it needs a good cleaning. This morning I decided to set out two jars of frozen plum juice with plans to make jelly this afternoon. I even had the cute little jelly jars already on hand, too.
So when I got ready to get started late this afternoon I got a little surprise. I discovered that I had one container of plum juice and one container of strawberry punch!
So I'm here to tell you I just mixed the two together and WAALAA. I now have the cutest little jars of strawberry plum jelly you've ever seen.
Tonight we sampled it. Rick gave it two thumbs up, and I have to admit -- it's good!!
Oh it looks so pretty! I love it when things like that turn out so nice. Good job on cleaning out your freezer.

ReplyDeleteWe call that freezer creativity. It is often used in our house when I've been crafting all day and at 5pm someone says "What's for dinner?"
ReplyDeleteSounds like a tasty accident! I'm sure I'd like it way better with the strawberry addition. Nice. And doesn't it make a beautiful pic!
