A Date

Yesterday Ryan asked me if I wanted to have a date in which we make jam together... which I of course gave an enthusiastic yes too. So (in what turned out to be one of my favorite dates) after getting the kids to bed we enjoyed a great night together and made some delicious black raspberry jam.

4 cups black raspberries
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 package powdered fruit pectin
1 1/2 cup honey

Mix the black raspberries, lemon juice and pectin in a heavy-bottomed, stainless-steel pot. Bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in the honey. Return to a boil and stir slowly for 10 to 12 minutes. The mixture will resemble a thick syrup when done.

Sooooo yummy.
