I Be Jammin'!

Sometimes Jack's patients will bring us little treats such as fresh eggs, spareribs, and this week is was fresh raspberries! I knew I wanted to make some freezer jam and she had given us just the right amount for a batch. It's fast, fun and yummy! I love these cute freezer jars with the snap on lids. So on the 4th when the homemade icecream is done I know what I'm spooning over the top...MMMMM!
On another note here's a plug for one of my fav spots in Ashland:
There's a little shop not too far from Jack's office called "Backdoor Primitives"..it's down a little alley and behind a house. Very cute shop with antiques, hook rugs (she has classes) and other sewing things (I'm not a sewing gal)..some of my fav figurines by Lori Mitchell that I've blogged about. I love this little treasure trove and have found some cute and reasonably priced items. I found this cute roseville pottery piece for $5..it's cute with some flags stuck in it for the 4th of July. I forgot to take a pic of the little yellow 1950's kitchen stool that I know the grandkiddos will love sitting on at the kitchen island..Jack always gets me a gift card from there and I always manage to pick up something! I will have to take a pic of this little shop for the blog soon. You will want to stop on in I'm sure!
