On Becoming a "Good Mennonite Housewife": Making Jam


Oma was over on Monday helping me along in my "become a good Mennonite housewife" journey.  This time is was a delicious jam-making session!!  

Mr. vL, fantastic as always, took Baby J (who isn't looking so much like a baby anymore!) to our nearby "petting farm," while Oma and I got to work peeling, grinding, boiling, and canning 17 jars of Peach and Peach-Orange Jam.  

In hindsight, some 'during' photos would have been lovely.  And I should have remembered to write out the oh-so-simple recipe for the Peach-Orange Jam.  Another day I suppose. 

For now, enjoy the following photos demonstrating my our hard work, complete with a vintage egg-picking basket and fruit farm sign.  Oh how I love my farming roots!





Happy Canning & Happy Peach Season!!!
